About Us

Hi there!

Investing in tablets for our schools, we have spent hours searching for appropriate apps to support the learning in the classrooms.  We have lost track of the number of magazines, websites and blogs recommending apps which didn’t even use the strategies we use in our curriculum, or with poor or inaccurate educational content.

So we decided to set up this site, where the aim is to make finding useful apps much easier.

We check out all the apps listed on this site.  We use them in our schools and with our own children at home and can vouch for their educational quality.  We would never knowingly include any app that we didn’t deem suitable for the children.

We link to the App Store and/or Google play from each app and generally recommend their ‘paid for’ version.  Free apps tend to have limited features.  However, it can be useful to check out free options to see if the app suits you and your children before you purchase one.

Currently, we do not receive any funding from apps advertising as we would not want the integrity of this site to be compromised.  Even the featured apps are not sponsored.  We aim to ensure that any advertising appearing on the site will be appropriate, well considered, and not hidden.  The main purpose of the site is to provide a useful service to teachers and parents.
