The interactive online learning tool
for education professionals


Getting it right for every child...

 
What is the ILD? Who uses the ILD?

Welcome to the ILD

The new tried and tested Interactive Learning Diary (ILD) is an intuitive, easy to use, web based tool, to record observations, assessments, reports and learning journeys within a child's diary while capturing evidence and assessing progress against the EYFS Profile in England and the Curriculum for Excellence in Scotland.

Placing the child at the centre of their own learning and including them in planning, which also produces the evidence required to satisfy Inspectors that this is taking place, is only a small part of what this amazing education support tool offers.

An online miracle for all education professionals, the Interactive Learning Diary also encourages parental participation and the opportunity to be more actively involved in their child’s learning journey through secure online access to the "Pupil's Diary".

These are of course just a few of the numerous unique benefits of the ILD and how it can assist with the implementation of the new curriculum.

Observations and Assessments

Observation recording is simplicity itself with the Interactive Learning Diary.Type your observation directly into the child's pupil portfolio page and just add photographic evidence using the automatic transfer of photographs from your own digital camera to the photo library. You can then link the assessment directly to the Curriculum learning outcomes which are all colour coded. You then simply record the child's next steps for the child or the class which will inform your planning.

Pupil Portfolio/Diary

Each child has an automatically created 'Learning Diary' which will detail progress and has relevant photographs within. This is produced in a PDF document and can be edited by the teacher. This is ideal for parents evening, reporting to parents or downloading for hard copies.

Children have access to their own portfolios and can upload photographs, write text and be fully involved in their own learning journeys.

Reports and Outcomes

A wide variety of reporting options afford teachers the opportunity to track progress at class level or on an individual basis for each child. These comprehensive interactive reports show achievements, evidence and areas that may require further focus.

Teachers and Support Workers

This time saving interactive tool is a must have for all educators who understand the importance of tracking progress at class level and on an individual basis for each child. The simple to navigate and one click report options provide all information required to evidence the learning and progression taking place within the class.

Parents and Carers (Optional)

Research has shown the importance of a parent's participation in their child's education and how this has a direct impact on their child’s learning and development. With the ILD, a direct link and the ability to interact with their child and what they are interested in at nursery or school is just a click away. Parents can access their own child's learning journey through a secure internet portal and add to the journey with learning that is taking place at home such as drawing, baking, cooking and risk assessment.

Children

Children are placed right at the heart of their own learning with this intuitive, easy to use and easy to navigate software tool. They can upload their own photographs, add to their own learning journey’s and even add what they want to learn next or what they are interested in learning more about. It also introduces children at a young age to ICT skills.

Organisations and Local Authorities

Large organisations and Local Authorities can use this tool to track a child's progress from nursery through to them leaving school. Reports can be produced for individual children and their progress moves schools with them if necessary, giving teachers an exact report on the child's development stage and learning abilities.

An overview report is available for classes and schools which can highlight both strengths and weakness in specific curriculum areas within a class.

This ensures there are no gaps in a child's learning or indeed weaknesses in the planning or teaching.
