A feature-rich platform dedicated to achieving more
Your internal communications platform

Support the future growth of your Trust
On-board new schools within your easy-to-use platform, and present your vision and ethos impactfully and consistently across all your academies.
A system for everyone
You’ll have a global, personalised menu for easy, clear navigation so that all your staff will be able to take advantage of the technology – not just tech-savvy teachers.
Work and learn collaboratively
Your mission-critical business and learning files are stored securely in a system that is both intuitive to use and accessible to the right people, wherever they are.
Allowing teachers to teach
Save huge amounts of time thanks to automated, central resource areas where teachers can co-author, share and re-use resources year after year.
Improve the quality and consistency of resources
Phase and department leaders can easily check and drive up the quality of resources and ensure that all necessary work is being set, thanks to assignment analytics.
