Connect
Material design and digital platforms

Made to measure, for the way you teach.

Connect designs the content a course is taught from and builds the platform it runs on, from the ground up, around the way your school works. Joined up, so the course, the content and the records agree.

A platform that has to fit everyone fits no one well. Here it starts from your course and grows outward from there.

What Connect makes

Material and course design

Lessons, sessions, tasks and tests, designed to be taught from and built to sit inside the platform they live on.

Digital learning platforms

Designed screen by screen, for each role that uses them, and built from the ground up.

Integration

Joined to what a school already runs on, so nothing is entered twice and nothing is left out.

Records and reports

One record per person, and the documents an authority or a client asks for, produced from it.

The work

Three platforms from Connect. Three different needs. None of them a template.

A full platformLive

Connect for CELTA

The whole of a teacher training course on one platform, from the first application to the final report, with a room for every person who touches it.

A light platformLive

Connect Lite

The same course on plain pages that need no sign-up, kept in a spreadsheet the tutor already understands. A tenth of the weight, the same care.

Affina

A platform for a corporate English school: placing a student, teaching the lesson, reporting back to the company. Designed first, with the owner, then built.

Made to measure

If your course can be described, the platform can be built to match.

Most learning software asks you to change how you teach so it fits. Connect works the other way round. Your process, your documents, your records and your rules are designed into the platform from the first screen, and the material it carries is designed to fit inside it.

Because the same person designs the content and builds the platform, the two were made for each other.

Content and material design

Teacher training, exam preparation, business English, general English: lessons and sessions written to be taught from.

Connectivity

One record shared across every role, so what happens in one room is visible in the next.

Integration

Joined to the calendars, meetings, drives and sheets a school already keeps.

How it is built

Designed first. Every screen drawn before a line of code.

A Connect platform starts as a set of screens you can open on your phone. You change them in plain words until they are right. Then they are built, on bones that already run real schools, so the build is weeks, not a year.

  1. 01

    We start from your course

    How you actually teach, assess and report, before any software is chosen.

  2. 02

    You see it before it exists

    Every role, every room, on a phone and on a desk, as a design you can open and comment on.

  3. 03

    It is built from the ground up

    Your design system, your words, your documents. Nothing bolted on, nothing squeezed in.

  4. 04

    It is joined up

    One record, so nothing is typed twice and nothing is insignificant.

  5. 05

    It is tested in a real classroom

    Connect is run by a teacher trainer who teaches on the courses it serves.

Start with the screens

Tell Connect about your school.

Four questions. What comes back first is a reply within a working day, and then drawings of your screens, on a phone and on a desk, before any code or any price.

What does your school run?

Nothing here is kept beyond what you write. No list, no newsletter.
