**** TESTIMONIALS ****

"Using Evidence for Learning has transformed how we capture holistic progress over time, and has supported integrated provision. It is a powerful way to share learning with parents and the multi-professional team... all with a device staff can keep in their pocket."
Vijita Patel, Principal & National Leader of Education (NLE),
Swiss Cottage School and Development & Research Centre, London, UK

"Evidence for Learning has truly revolutionised how we capture everything from pupil evidence, assessment and data in one centralised package.  The sheer flexibility of the product allows us to use it across the whole school from 7-19 with an array of needs.  The ability to move from extremely personalised targets right the way through to more formal accreditations means it is truly a one-stop-shop for all our needs. We have seen significant impacts across the whole school from allowing greater efficiency for Senior Leaders to complete complex moderation and triangulation, engaging and communicating with parents through to lightening the workload for teachers allowing them to focus on the important aspects of their role."
Oliver Flowers, Headteacher
The Westminster School, W Midlands, UK

### 1/5 — Clunky and time consuming

*2025-01-17, version 6.5.32*

I’ve got RSI from poorly structured data entry. This app suffers from lack of consideration of which choices are necessary and which just add time and frustration.

### 2/5 — Great app with a major bug

*2023-06-19, version 6.5.18*

I’ve been using this app for a number of years and it’s been brilliant.  However, the recent iOS16 update has bugged the share feature making it frustratingly difficult to print or save to pages as the app closes down.  The only way to bypass it is some long winded camera permission workaround.  I was hoping this would of been fixed by now but it still hasn’t.

### 5/5 — Beyond excellent

*2021-06-27, version 6.5.3*

I rave about this app to any teacher I know, it is brilliant, especially for pupils with SEND as any targets can be inputted and assessed against. Our teachers love it too, it makes assessment a pleasure.

### 5/5 — A game changer!

*2020-07-02, version 6.3.4*

This app is a game changer for us as a college and the ongoing support from the team at EfL is fantastic!

### 3/5 — More support needed

*2018-02-27, version 5.4.8*

I’ve tried many apps for Early Years programming and this is my preferred app. Unfortunately there have been times when updates either to the app or to the iOS on my phone which have resulted in a lot of work being lost. I understand these things happen but every time I have tried to contact the support team for this app I have received no help. 
The latest glitch means that I can no longer even use this app and will have to look for alternatives which is very disappointing.

### 5/5 — Very good app

*2018-01-10, version 5.4.3*

I have used this app for 3 years and can not give it a high enough score!  It is simple to use and makes observation, assessment and next steps planning really easy!

### 1/5 — Glorified spreadsheet, yet not as good as a spreadsheet

*2017-09-26, version 5.3*

Multiple screens make actually releasing updates to parents, or assessing a child/class tedious. No parent version of the app, so they have to log onto a browser to access - something that is inconvenient for many parents. No automatic update email for parents, so they just have to check it periodically. Little flexibility in how children are assessed - all based on numbers of pieces of evidence rather than the quality of each piece (i.e. beginning, securing, mastery). If you want to do this, then it needs to be transferred to the 'assessment book' (another tedious step) when you are allowed to look at one child at a time, rather than the whole class. A number of colleagues have lost data input after hours of work. Feedback to the company is ignored - they really don't care if it works well once they have your school's money. Do not enter into a three year contract with them - make sure it has been thoroughly tested for a year by a range of staff first. It will be more user testing than Evidence do.

### 1/5 — Is this app active? No printing??

*2015-10-31, version 4.3*

I get the feeling that this all has been forgotten.  The tutorial and help isn't clear.  
There is no discernable way to print documents.  
I can't even find a way too share.  
Links to Facebook are dead links, the websites search is terrible.  
YET!  The tool itself is great.  But without a PRINT option,  my evidence is useless.  :/
1 Star

### 5/5 — Paperwork made easy!!!

*2015-08-07, version 3.5*

I would highly recommend this app to anyone.  Having tried out a variety of apps to make nursery paperwork easier I have found this one to be the easiest to use. It gives you access to a variety of frameworks while also allowing you to easily create your own. Observation are quick and easy to record allowing you to add photos, observations, tag children, link up to your chosen framework, to name a few. The app does all the work for you by linking observations etc to learners profiles. You can even make up tracker sheets. All I can say is I wish I had found it sooner and it would have saved me a mountain of paperwork time!! Huge thanks to Alan for helping with any questions I've had. It's good to know there is a real person available to chat to at any time.

### 5/5 — App tastic

*2015-06-17, version 3.5*

Able to use this app to profile, track and report. Using with kids to put them in control and make it easier for the teacher. Enjoy Lizx
