Empowering Looked After Children & Children in Need with EDClass
Looked After Children & Children in Need
EDClass understands the unique challenges faced by looked after children (LAC) and children in need (CIN).
Our DfE-accredited platform offers a stable, supportive, and engaging learning environment that can help these vulnerable young people thrive academically and emotionally, regardless of their circumstances or location.
Our comprehensive platform ensures a coordinated and resilience-based approach to their education and wellbeing.

How EDClass Supports LAC/CIN
EDClass provides a consistent and uninterrupted learning experience, regardless of changes in placement or school.
Our platform ensures educational continuity, which is crucial for maintaining stability in a child's life.
Our UK-qualified teachers use EDTeach to create tailored learning plans that address individual academic needs and gaps.
This allows LAC/CIN to catch up and progress at their own pace, focusing on a broad curriculum that supports their individual requirements.
Our teachers, many of whom are exam markers, provide expert guidance to help them achieve their academic potential.
EDClass content and activities are designed with sensitivity to trauma, fostering a safe and supportive learning environment.
Our EDNurture platform provides dedicated sessions and a curriculum focused on wellbeing, resilience, and emotional regulation, helping to address the social and emotional barriers to learning.
Our interactive lessons, gamification elements, and a clear sense of achievement keep LAC/CIN motivated and engaged.
The EDLive platform provides live, one-to-one teacher interaction, which is essential for building rapport and trust with students who may have struggled to form positive relationships in mainstream settings.
EDClass facilitates seamless communication between carers, social workers, and virtual school heads, ensuring a coordinated approach to support.
Our platform provides the data and insights necessary for multi-agency collaboration, making it easier to track progress and celebrate achievements together.
Our specialist SEND team works directly with LAC/CIN to ensure their specific learning needs are met.
By accessing information from the pupil's profile, including their support strategies, our teachers and the SEND team deliver a personalised approach to teaching and communication that is vital for students with an EHCP.
Our staff also attend multi-agency meetings to ensure every aspect of a student's care and educational plan is addressed.
