About Educa

Educa is a cloud-based communications platform for child care centers, preschools and early learning programs. It enables teachers, parents and administrators to communicate and stay informed about student milestones, program goals and student information.

Teachers can share updates about class activities in real time, and they can connect specific activities to class curricula and program goals. The planning and assessment module helps teachers set learning goals and share progress with parents. Progress for each child is tracked in chart format and users can access reports on parent and child activity.

Educa can be configured to suit various education styles and requirements such as Montessori schools, state guidelines or school-specific programs. The application also offers a portal for sharing policies, information and forms. Users can customize forms as needed.

Educa offers apps for iOS and Android devices. Support is provided by phone, email and online chat. Pricing is per month.

A good way to keep track of your kids documentation!

Incredible documentation software that helps parents and teachers keep track of their kids any time, everywhere you go, saving parents and teachers a lot of time and facilitating the communication between them, HIGHLY recommended.

Functionality

Pros:

How easy it is for you to check what your kids have been doing lately in their respective classes, ask the teacher and clear your doubts right away and even see photos of excursions or just class activities, all in the same place, which also is very organized and intuitive.

Cons:

I really don't think this software has badly implemented features, but sometimes it gets a little bit slow, but really it is not a problem that concerns me or affects the experience with Educa.

Functionality

Pros:

I really like the ease of Educa and how I can use it at work, at home or on my phone. It is a great resource for us to keep in touch with whanau - routines, messages, daily diary and learning stories. Parents are more likely to comment on learning stories as well as giving us stories from home.

Cons:

Would like a few more borders, but it isn't a major issue for us.

Best Documentation Program I have Used

Incessant and time consuming paperwork and record keeping are dramatically and easily reduced. Staff are extremely helpful and pleasant.

Functionality

Pros:

Ease of use for documentation and sharing with parents and other educators. Integration with existing business methods was a non event because this easily replaced the numerous other things I was using.

Cons:

Some of the things that this program does are not simple for me to understand. More because I am not computer literate enough rather than the program being at fault.

Reasons for choosing Educa

Cost and ease of use as well as a more well rounded program for my needs

Reasons for switching to Educa

Initially cost then ease of use once I trialled Educa.

Functionality

Pros:

An accessible menu, easy to follow time line. I appreciate how simple it is to find the information and updates I am after.

Cons:

The design/aesthetics, more specifically how photos appear. Feels a little cheesy and dated. Some of this may be to do with how it is used by the preschool staff?
