Results
Preview and add custom screens
Providing a more intuitive way for teachers to prepare and deliver lesson, allowing an easier way to manage slides, adjust content, and ensure the presentation flow matched their lesson needs.
Ability to add the date on a presentation slide
Enabling teachers to easily show the current date to their class at the start of a lesson, supporting classroom routines and making the presentations more useful and relevant for daily teaching, along with options for different date formats and languages so it’s flexible for various teaching contexts.
Subject leader resources update
Reorganising and updating the subject leader resources hub so teachers and subject leaders can quickly locate documents, videos and tools relevant to their roles. This included adding new filters, categories and tagging options, along with enhancing the search and navigation features.
Embedded sign-up flow
Rolling out subject-specific free trials embedded on key pages to allow more focused targeting, A/B testing and a simpler sign-up process for users.
New verification flow
Updating the sign-up flow for free trials and purchases to reduce spam and ensure only verified educators can access resources.
Subject curriculum launch
Launched the new subject curriculum pages, starting with Geography, to provide structured, accessible curriculum information for teachers.
Alternative lessons feature
Enabled the setup of three alternative lesson versions (e.g., for Google, Microsoft, or Sketchpad), making it easier for schools and teachers to choose the right fit for their tech stack.
