Toddle Student

What Toddle Student is for and who can use it

Toddle Student is the pupil-facing app in the Toddle school platform. The developer, Teacher Tools Private Limited, says it lets students record their learning and work with teachers from a phone.

Pupils cannot sign in unless their school has subscribed to Toddle's premium plan. The developer says Toddle is used by more than 30,000 educators across more than 1,000 schools.

The app is aimed at school pupils and the teachers who set their work. The developer describes the wider Toddle platform as covering planning, portfolios, classroom work, reports and family communication.

Building a portfolio from photos, video and audio

The app is built around documenting learning. Pupils can add photos, videos, galleries and audio notes to show what they have done in class.

The developer presents this as a learning journey, so the material builds up over time rather than sitting in a single task. Pupils can use it to show progress in their own words as well as in their teachers' assessments.

The listing does not say how these items are organised or shared beyond the school. It describes the portfolio as a record kept inside Toddle.

Opening and submitting teacher assessments

Teachers set assessments for their classes, and pupils can open them in the app. The developer says pupils can make their submissions from the same place.

The listing stresses timely submission, so the app is meant to keep pupils on track with set work. The details of deadlines and marking are not given in the listing.

Setting learning goals and tracking them with evidence

Pupils can set their own learning goals inside the app. They then track each goal by attaching evidence they have captured, such as a photo or a recording.

This links the goals to the portfolio. The evidence a pupil adds for a goal is the same kind of material used in the wider learning record.

Class discussions and messages with teachers

The app includes class discussions that the developer describes as moderated. Pupils can take part in these with their classmates.

Pupils can also hold one-on-one conversations with their teachers. The listing does not say how these conversations are started or how long they are kept.
