Recently, we received some great feedback from a school about why they love using EducationCity in their classrooms.
Mrs Morley, from Treleigh School in Cornwall, said: “As a school, we have been using EducationCity for over 5 years now across KS1 and KS2. Our students including the reception class find it easy to access all the games and quizzes. The teachers find the resources very useful as they coincide with the units being delivered to their classes. The students find the activities fun and the walk through within each activity is a good instructional aid.”
You can see EducationCity being used at Treleigh School in the gallery below.
With this absolutely fantastic feedback, we thought we’d focus on how you can use our Activities in your classroom too, just like Treleigh School does.
