Education & EdTech
We build education software: learning platforms, student and course management, assessment tooling and the reporting institutions depend on. Accessibility standards are treated as requirements from the start, because retrofitting them across a platform is substantially more expensive.
Education platforms carry two constraints most software does not. Accessibility is frequently a legal requirement rather than good practice, and usage is extremely spiky — enrolment and assessment periods concentrate a term's load into a few days.
Student data also carries handling obligations that differ by jurisdiction and by the age of the student.
What tends to be hard
Accessibility as a requirement
Built to WCAG from the start. Retrofitting accessibility means revisiting every interface.
Enrolment and assessment peaks
A term's worth of load concentrated into a few days, which is what the system must be sized against.
Student data handling
Obligations vary by jurisdiction and student age, and have to be modelled rather than assumed.
Integration with institutional systems
Student information systems, timetabling and finance rarely share data cleanly.
We have delivered work in Education & EdTech but do not have a published case study for it yet. We would rather say that than point you at something adjacent and let you assume. Ask us for references.
FAQ
Education & EdTech — questions
- Do you build to accessibility standards?
- Yes, to WCAG, and we build to it from the start. We also test with keyboard navigation and screen readers rather than relying only on automated checks, which catch roughly a third of real issues.
- Can you handle enrolment traffic spikes?
- Yes. These are among the sharpest load profiles in any sector, so we size and load-test against the peak rather than the average.
- Can AI be used for assessment?
- For assistance rather than final decisions. We build with an evaluation set and a person in the loop, because an assessment decision made wrongly by an unmeasured system is a serious problem for an institution.
