Hi all, This is my first post on Edugeek, so please forgive me if I’ve posted this in the wrong section! I work in a secondary special needs school in the UK, and we’ve been using Education City to support teaching and learning in English, Maths, and Science. Although our students are secondary-aged, many are working within the KS1 and KS2 curriculum due to their individual needs. Education City has been a great all-round solution for us - its cartoon-style visuals and accessible content really suit our learners, and it’s also been valuable for setting homework across the three core disciplines. We do use a number of other platforms, but none of them cover all three subjects in one place as effectively as Education City has. With the platform being retired in August, we’re now looking for a suitable replacement. We’re hoping to find a platform that: Is cloud-based and GDPR compliant Allows us to set and manage homework in English, Maths, and Science Is visually engaging and accessible to students with a range of SEND profiles Covers KS1 and KS2 level content Aligns with the UK National Curriculum Is easy for staff to use and integrate into everyday classroom practice If you’re in a similar setting, or have used any platforms that meet these needs, I’d be really grateful for any recommendations - or warnings on what to avoid! Thanks in advance.
