About Educa
Save Time With Group & Student Updates
Share small samples of learning frequently using student-initiated posts and group observations written by teachers that post to individual student portfolios. Families can also contribute learning examples.
Manage Teacher Registration
Bring your teachers together in one system — they can share evidence and resources, and schools can see where teachers stand. More here
Curriculum Links - Meaningful Sharing
Link stories, including stories by students, to school curriculum goals, key competencies or plans. Stories start meaningful conversations with parents, extended family and specialists.
Teacher Portfolios Educators Will Love
Each teacher has a private portfolio. Linking to evidence in Educa makes it quick and efficient. Accepted by the Education Council.
Control Access & What Goes Out
Privacy, mentoring and approval settings support new teachers, allow outside specialists onto student profiles, and helps manage what goes to parents.
Post Policies and Resources
Share policies with teachers, parents or both in the Policies module. There is a Resources section also – upload resources, such as school forms or info for parents or reference materials for teachers.
Reporting Soft Skills
Because anything shared with parents can link to any objectives, including soft skill measures, Educa collects data for reporting on soft skills. We are working with several Australasian schools on report formats.
Announcements & News
Send messages to parents that will be read. When parents login, the message board is their first screen.
