What is EDClass?

EDClass is a powerful toolbox with a variety of tools that can assist your school and multi-academy trust with personalised learning, scheduled pathways of study and timetabled support for any individual within your organisation. EDClass demonstrates the ability to educate students from your demographic through online learning and provides real-time access to qualified and experienced teachers. You can also use your teachers to deliver sessions.

EDClass is an online learning application designed to help break barriers to learning. EDClass delivers online teaching through UK-qualified teachers and tutors using personalised e-learning tools to promote a positive attitude towards learning. EDClass offers learners live tutorial support and distance learning provision through a robustly safeguarded and supervised online platform. The system is purposefully built to be flexible in its approach to learners while also supporting their mental health and well-being.

Use our live teaching platform to teach those students who are hard to reach, excluded, have mental health issues such as anxiety, behavioural issues, have problems with their physical health, have poor attendance or are school-phobic. You can have peace of mind in the knowledge that safeguarding is our number one priority – our system is designed to provide eyes-on learning, meaning your students are supervised, safeguarded and supported while continuing their education.

The assessment process and tools, allow the platform to identify knowledge and skill gaps and target the learning journey around each learner's needs

EDClass allows you to monitor and track the progress of your learners safely and securely online and help positively impact their attainment and attendance.

EDClass accommodates all types of learners including SEND students and those struggling to acquire an EHCP. Schools can drastically reduce their workload and time spent searching for solutions for their students who require support as EDClass can help quickly and efficiently!

Our observation areas enable your authorised staff to see your students working at home and monitor their learning through our tracking system. In fact, with EDClass, you can monitor and track any of your off-site students’ learning from any school in your trust.

You can personalise the learning of any student on the platform – a student using the system occupies a ‘seat’ - students can be alternated on a seat meaning you decide the times a student engages with their ‘pathway’ of lessons. You also choose the method of curriculum delivery, the teaching content and the lessons in the pathway.
