We needed a platform that was engaging for pupils, teachers and parents whilst being simple to use but also flexible enough to allow our teachers to be creative with their content. With Firefly, we have also been able to give parents more clarity on their child’s learning, enabling them to see feedback from teachers.

The ability for the learner to curate their own learning content was the biggest single factor in influencing our decision.

Parents understand their child’s learning before parents’ evening. Almost all parents have engaged and interacted with Firefly since we launched, whether it’s to check in on their child’s progressive assessments, homework, absences or catch up on school news.

Since the introduction of Epraise at our academy we have seen increased levels of motivation and improved attitudes across our academy. Students love the fact they can contribute to the ‘shop’ and we are always able to provide rewards that motivate the students to work harder and achieve more. Attendance at our academy increased by 2% last year and a lot of this was down to the introduction of Epraise.
