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."

The Forest School App is your field companion for the woods - the record book that works where you do: outdoors, off-grid, on your phone. Free for practitioners - there's nothing to buy in the app. Built by a forest-school practitioner, it's made for the one job that can't wait for a desk or a signal: capturing what happens in your session as it happens. Mark the register, check your ratio, log the risks you're managing, record observations and photos, note any incidents, and reflect when you're done. Everything saves to your device the moment you tap, and syncs automatically when you're back in signal - so a flat battery, a soggy notebook, or no bars in the woods never costs you a record again. This is the in-the-field half of the system. Planning, bookings, your risk-benefit library, reports and admin live in the web back-office; the app is built to be fast, focused, and usable with cold hands and one thumb. IN THE WOODS, WITH NO SIGNAL • Registers & ratios - mark who's here, count your adults, and see your adult-to-child ratio is right at a glance, with a logged override when a higher ratio is justified. • Weather go/no-go - record your site-check decision and the reasoning behind it. • Dynamic risk log - capture the risks you spot and the actions you take, as you take them. • Observations - record children's learning against developmental areas, tagged to the child and the activity. • Photos, consent-first - the camera won't open for a child without photo consent, so you can capture the moment safely. • Incidents & accidents - log the type, severity, and action taken, on the spot. • Reflection - close out the session with your review while it's still fresh. • Your professional record - keep your DBS, first aid, qualifications, and CPD with you, ready when an assessor asks. WHY LEADERS USE IT • Works fully offline - every tap saves to your device; nothing waits on a signal. • Built for the woods - fast, glove-friendly, and shaped around how a real session runs. • Syncs automatically - back in range, your records flow up to the back-office on their own. • Your data stays yours - private by design. Plan your sessions, manage bookings and groups, build your reusable risk-benefit library, and produce professional session records and PDFs in the web back-office - then head into the woods with the app. From a one-person setting to a multi-site provider, The Forest School App keeps the paperwork out of the mud and lets you focus on the learning.
