EDClass is used as an intervention not a destination

EDClass offers a comprehensive solution for students who require alternative educational pathways. Its flexible platform can be tailored to address the specific needs of students on offsite direction, 6th day provision, inclusion, alternative provision, persistent absences, long term absences, those with mental health challenges, and those without access to mainstream education. By leveraging its diverse range of features and capabilities, EDClass can provide a personalised and effective learning experience for these students.

For students who are offsite due to illness or other reasons, EDClass can enable them to continue their education remotely. Teachers can assign lessons, provide feedback, and communicate with students through the platform. Additionally, EDClass can offer interactive activities and resources that can help students stay engaged with their learning.

For students who require 6th day provision, EDClass can provide supplementary learning opportunities. Teachers can use the platform to deliver additional instruction, reinforce key concepts, and offer targeted support. This can help students catch up on missed work and strengthen their understanding of the curriculum.

In inclusive settings, EDClass can be used to differentiate instruction and provide support for students with diverse learning needs. Teachers can create personalised learning pathways, offer adaptive assessments, and provide accommodations to ensure that all students can access the curriculum. EDClass can help to bridge the gap, offer bespoke pathways and our differentiated learning materials can ensure that all students have the opportunity to succeed.

For students who require alternative provision, EDClass can offer a flexible and adaptable learning environment. The platform can be used to deliver specialised instruction, cater to individual learning styles, and provide support for students with specific needs whilst developing essential skills and knowledge. Our support model for your alternative provision is a school’s and MAT’s greatest asset when working with students who need to overcome barriers to learning due to behavioural, social, medical, emotional or mental health issues. All students within our support model have a specific learning pathway designed to meet their individual needs.

For students with persistent or long-term absences, EDClass can help them stay connected to their learning. Teachers can use the platform to provide missed lessons, offer support, and facilitate communication. This can help students minimise disruptions to their education and maintain their progress.

For students on offsite direction, EDClass can provide a structured learning environment that aligns with their individual needs and goals. The platform's personalised curriculum and progress tracking features can help these students stay engaged and motivated, even when they are unable to attend traditional classes.

For students with mental health challenges or those who are not accessing mainstream education, EDClass can provide a safe and supportive learning environment. The platform can offer flexible learning options, personalised support, and opportunities for social interaction. This can help students build their confidence, develop their skills, and achieve their educational goals. 

EDClass offers a secure and safe support model for your alternative provision, including learners with well-being and mental health learning issues as well as individuals having their behaviours exploited.  This includes online support and teaching staff that are available for text chats, audio, live or visual conversations. Our new approach to virtual classrooms can help students within a school or MAT who have difficulty attending a mainstream provision. Learning, timing and attendance are then personalised per learner and are set out by your rules and regulations.

We provide a safe and secure learning environment for hard-to-reach students, allowing them to achieve, whilst offering educators our online platform and safeguarding tools. This will ensure each student reaches their full potential in a controlled and safe environment. We virtually become your alternative provision through association by agreeing to follow service-level agreements and your policies and procedures. 

Finally, EDClass can be a valuable tool for students who are not accessing mainstream education. The platform's flexibility and adaptability can accommodate a wide range of learning needs and preferences, ensuring that all students have the opportunity to reach their full potential. By providing a personalized and engaging learning experience, EDClass can help to improve educational outcomes for students who may face significant challenges.

Parental Access within EDClass to help assist your intervention

EDClass also provides the opportunity for parents to access their area of the system to track and monitor learner progress, which has been proven to improve parental relationships with key stakeholders to impact their childs learning, engagement, involvement and progress back into mainstream education. The platform enables parents to see the programme of study that has been assigned and then support learner progress. EDClass also comes with an internal messaging system so the parents, the learner and the teacher can communicate with one another within a secure area.

We have invested a great deal of time and effort into the design of EDClass to create a positive intervention strategy which was seen by EDClass becoming a DfE accredited Online provider in May 2024. Through working closely with our schools we have created a unique alternative provision and school improvement platform that adheres to government safeguarding, well-being and supervision legislation with intervention, reintegration and safeguarding at the heart of everything we do. EDClass is a powerful intervention tool used to remove barriers to learning and allows your pupils to reach their full potential whilst:

  • Safeguarding all learners - This is our priority. Everything is seen, tracked and recorded.
  • Impacting knowledge and understanding - Your learners have access to our teachers and well-being on demand and request.
  • Raising achievement - By tracking, monitoring and reporting students’ learning and progress so that weaknesses can be identified easily and pathways can be altered to meet a student’s needs.
