A growing number of local authorities and multi-academy trusts are making Clicker and DocsPlus an integral part of their literacy and inclusion strategies. These award-winning tools enable struggling and reluctant writers of all ages and abilities to capture their ideas, demonstrate their knowledge, and achieve writing success across the curriculum.
“Our schools are using Clicker at varying levels; some are concentrating on particular cohorts, others like Ark Oval are using it to support literacy development across the school. In general, it is used to help children who experience any form of literacy difficulty and those who would ordinarily find recording their ideas on paper challenging. It’s great for everyone from our older struggling writers to our much younger children.”
A study undertaken by Angus Council across eight of its primary schools found that students of all abilities experienced significant benefits from using our software to support writing.
Evolution Academy Trust member Wensum School investigated the impact that our software had on the quantity and quality of work produced by their struggling writers. They also found significant evidence of increased confidence, concentration and calmer classroom environments.
In a recent National Literacy Trust survey involving hundreds of schools across the UK, respondents highlighted Clicker’s impact on improving writing enjoyment, engagement and confidence; facilitating writing for those with poor motor skills; increasing writing self-regulation and resilience skills; and helping children with diverse needs take part in meaningful literacy practices.
If a student qualifies for additional access arrangements in exams, they can use DocsPlus, saving time and money that would otherwise be spent on human scribes and readers. Find out how much your trust could save with our handy examination savings guide.
