We are pleased to announce our BIG win at the BETT Awards 2019. Edukey Education won Company of the Year 2019.
Edukey is awarded the prestigious BETT Award in the ‘ICT Leadership and Management solutions’ category. The award was won for our Class Charts product which provides teachers with data rich seating charts and streamlined behaviour management reports. Coinciding with BETT, the world’s leading event for learning technology, the awards are considered the highest accolade in the industry.
Acquired by tes who have over 100 years of pedigree working with teachers and is a brand globally recognised by teachers. Acquisition by tes gave Edukey a significant opportunity to grow into the edtech business it is today.
August – Edukey opened their first office in St David’s, Pembrokeshire (above the TYF shop on the square if you know St David’s – big thanks to Andy Middleton for helping us out in those early days).
Launch of Class Charts, www.classcharts.com – Duncan used data rich seating plans at school and this project initially began as a tool to reduce the teacher workload involved in making seating plans for their classes. Behaviour is a big barrier to learning and so this was a natural development of the software, and by overlaying behaviour on top of seating plans they could utilise Gintas’ skills to create algorithms that identify how pupils influence each other in the classroom.
Launch of Provision Map, www.provisionmap.co.uk – Duncan identified the increasing workload and demand put on SENCOs with the administration of SEND and worked with Gintas to develop our School Management Information System for SENCOs.
Launch of Literacy Assessment, www.literacyassessment.co.uk – literacy is the gateway to learning and the pair decided to develop this product to help schools identify and track those pupils needing support with literacy.
Launch of first product, Report Comment Bank, www.reportcomment.co.uk – they built this to help busy teachers write their end of year school reports.
