Why is the Flexi-subscription your standard model?

The Flexi-subscription isn’t tied to specific pupils or fixed numbers, giving you the freedom to scale usage up or down and adapt your teaching to emerging needs in real-time.

Our Flexi model is designed to remove practical barriers to use by:

  • allowing Clicker to be available across school devices - removing access bottlenecks and supporting needs-led use
  • providing home access – this gives pupils consistency and staff the ability to mark and plan without being tied to school devices
  • including unlimited online training - staff can build skills at their own pace and return for refreshers whenever needed
  • supporting whole staff familiarity – when Clicker isn’t limited to a few devices, it doesn’t rely on a small group of users to keep everything going

We believe that Assistive Technology works best when it’s part of a school’s universal offering. This doesn’t mean that it should be used with every pupil, or all of the time, but that the option is widely available and easily accessible, as and when needed.  

SENsible SENCo founder Abigail Hawkins summarises this inclusive approach really well:

“When a tool is seen as something designed for “one or two pupils”, every cost will feel disproportionate. It becomes a specialist purchase for a very small group of children.

When the same tool is understood as part of universal classroom provision and adaptive teaching, the conversation changes quite dramatically. Tools that support writing, organisation, reading access, communication, or planning rarely benefit only a handful of pupils. They often support a much wider group of learners who struggle quietly without a label, alongside those with identified needs.

When supportive technologies begin to be viewed as part of the everyday classroom toolkit rather than a niche intervention, the investment tends to make far more sense.”

What’s also incredibly powerful about this approach is that it normalises the use of AT as an authentic and equally valid path to learning success. When children who find writing difficult see the children who don’t also using Clicker, and when the use of assistive technology is modelled by the adults in the classroom (because which of us doesn’t use word prediction on our phones or spell checkers before we hit ‘SEND’), what they are doing doesn’t feel ‘special’ or ‘other’, it’s just ‘writing’.

We work with schools across the country, of all shapes and sizes, who are seeing fantastic results with their Flexi-subscriptions, and we’d be very happy to explore how this would look in your setting – please book in a free Discovery Call at a time that suits you.
