Supporting quality practice
Developed in New Zealand, Educa is intuitive learning story and documentation software – child eportfolios, planning, curriculum linking, assessments, teacher portfolios, more.
Educa supports improving learning outcomes. Our documentation encourages feedback and cooperation in a community formed around each child. Here’s how:
- More learning-focused parent feedback
- Online sharing of ideas and working with peers
- Mentoring & reflections help teachers hone their craft
It’s all about strengthening child-teacher connections, and that’s when the magic happens!
Communicate Your Approach
By linking observations shared with parents to curriculum and/or plans, you communicate your educational value and approach, and attract feedback. Send announcements and news to your families from our message dashboard.
Enable Continuous Improvement
Online creates visibility and access. Knowing it’s seen by others raises standards. Sharing of templates and ideas, document review, post Policies.
Support & Retain Teachers
Each teacher has a private portfolio for reflections, etc. Mentoring settings add support where needed. Teachers love the life-affirming feedback from having a closer connection to parents. More here

Educa Replaces …
Emails, Mailchimp, …
Emails can’t be saved to a portfolio, and get lost in cluttered family inboxes.
Mass messages and child stories go to the parent phone, stories save to a portfolio.
Blogs
Blogs are impersonal and don’t feel private. And so parents don’t engage.
Educa is private, you will engage parents like never before.
Facebook, Shutterfly, …
These channels are time consuming and compromises, not intended for school use.
Educa is made for sharing stories about learning.

“Educa gives us a place to build and grow the picture of a child. This story can be shared with parents and future teachers, which they can contribute to and work in partnership with the centre to build these skills at home. A true partnership, where else can you get this?!”
“It also allows us to set organisational goals for teachers and centres so that they can go on an educational journey, and be reflective and evaluative of what they do. It is a tool that can create time, and a tool that allows us to lift the quality of what we are doing irrespective of the regulations we have to follow.”
