Schools
We have a long history of working with primary schools across the world, both in terms of providing fun, educational content for their pupils and working with them to help improve how our apps can work better in the classroom. Our new Squeebles Connect series of apps build on both parts of that relationship, to provide schools with the perfect solution for (initially) spelling and times tables, with more subjects coming soon.
Squeebles Connect Apps
These apps were built with schools very much in mind. Some of the school-specific features of these apps include:
- Free access at home for all children who are registered as part of your school subscription.
- The ability for children and teachers to sign in on any supported device and access their account from anywhere with an internet connection.
- The ability for teachers to set homework assignments that their pupils can attempt at home, or in class, with the results being sent to the teacher's secure admin area within the app.
- Support for as many device types as possible - Apple iPad / iPhone, Android devices, Chromebook, PC, Mac and other computers via a web browser.
- The ability to set up classes, assign pupils to them, and add other teachers to your account, making assigning work to groups of pupils much easier.
- Each app's reward system makes learning fun and engaging, whilst ensuring the focus is always brought back to the educational aspect of the app.
- SEN features, like semi-opaque coloured overlays in our Squeebles Spelling Connect app, to aid pupils who struggle with visual stress and use of the OpenDyslexic font throughout.
- Settings can be altered on a per-child basis, so the app can be tailored to the educational needs of each child individually.
- High score tables allow pupils to see how they're doing against the other members of their class, or the rest of the school.
- Pricing that works for your individual situation. Guide prices can be found here, but please contact us if you want a quote for your school, telling us how many pupils you want to have access and which app you're interested in.

Original "Standalone" Squeebles Apps
Our standalone Squeebles apps are also very popular with schools.
Whilst they were originally developed with family use at home in mind, they are used by lots of school across the world as an integral part of their digital learning in the classroom. The main difference between these apps and the Squeebles Connect series of apps is that in these standalone apps, all data / progress is saved to the device being used, so there is no "cloud" functionality or similar, where a child can sign in on any device.
However, the simplicity of the apps, without the need for unique logins, means they can be ideal tools for your class to have at hand for use in smaller group work or when covering a particular topic that doesn't require a child's progress to be tracked over a longer period of time. These apps can't be used to set homework and if a parent wanted the app at home, they would have to purchase it themselves.
These apps cover a lot more topics, including addition and subtraction, number bonds, division, telling the time, fractions, times tables, general maths and punctuation.
