A great application for the follow-up of your students and the management of your preparations

Paradoxically, the software to manage its class like PrimSchool are not very numerous on the market. I presented here some time ago Teetsh not far away.

PrimSchool is an all-in-one solution, making it easy to create and manage most of the teacher’s day-to-day tasks, such as:

Schedules

Creating a schedule with PrimSchool will save you valuable time. Whether you have a single level, a double level, weeks A or B, everything is fully customizable.

You can then export it in PDF format, ready to print in the blink of an eye.

The Journal Book

No need to search through different tools to find a document, video or exercise in a hard drive. Thanks to the Digital Journal Book of PrimSchool, all sessions contain programme skills, objectives, workflow, necessary materials as well as worksheets, images, videos and sites.

Everything is easily accessible and well organized, ready to be shared. Cherry on the cake. The logbook is synchronised with the timetable.

Notebooks

Forget Excel sheets. Forget about average calculation formulas or formatting, recording notes is done in just a few clicks.

All competencies of official programs are already registered. Once the results are entered, a range of indicators are updated instantly, making it easier to monitor your students and class.

School booklets

This may be the task in which PrimSchool will save you the most time. The module works of course from the results entered in the notebook during the period.

You will be able to write your evaluations and configure as you wish the elements that you want to see displayed or hidden.

The final result in PDF format of the school booklets is flawless and informative. This module of PrimSchool alone is a major asset of the software.

Note that the designer of PrimSchool has provided for the possibility to export the results of your students to the national LSU database to be edited in the official format and thus avoid double entry.

Evaluations

The tool can be used to administer and manage re-entry diagnostic assessments, whether national or class-specific. This feature will help you to take stock of students’ achievements at the beginning of the year.

The tool provides you with a valuable overview of the progress and needs of the class group and each student. Individual statistical indicators provide an overview of each student's specific achievements and needs.

New features for even smoother use

PrimSchool regularly improves the user experience. Several notable additions have been introduced recently:

• Export of the logbook in PDF format: Synchronised with time use, the digital journal can now be exported in PDF format, providing a convenient solution for sharing or archiving. This digital version makes it possible to centralize its files and resources, offering better organization and easy access to educational documents.
• Operation in cloud mode: Work from any computer (home, school) with the new cloud functionality. Your data is synchronized in real time via your personal storage space (Dropbox, OneDrive, etc.).
• Video tutorials: The ‘Assistance’ section is enriched with video tutorials for quick and intuitive handling of the tool.
  

Extended and customizable school programs

A major novelty has enriched PrimSchool in recent weeks. The platform now integrates school programs from several French-speaking countries and regions. Includes:

• France (cycles 1, 2 and 3)
• Belgium (from M1 to P6)
• French Polynesia (cycles 1, 2 and 3)
• New Caledonia (cycles 1, 2 and 3)

This geographical extension allows teachers in these regions to benefit from a tool that is perfectly adapted to their educational context.

But the great novelty and good news is the arrival of a import/export function of benchmarks. Concretely, each teacher can now import all or part of their own competency framework into the application. Better yet, it can share it with other PrimSchool users through the export function.

This feature is particularly interesting for teachers in other countries or in secondary schools (college, high school) whose curricula are not (yet) integrated into PrimSchool.

A cross-platform application designed for the school

Developed by a teacher, PrimSchool meets the real needs of the educational world. Available on Mac, PC or Linux, this platform has many advantages. Everything can happen locally, without the need for an internet connection and without GDPR problems.

Handling is simple and fast, with a well-explained initial configuration and responsive support. In addition, the author has designed an impressive series of video tutorials to answer all your questions.

PrimSchool is a true digital assistant that will allow teachers to focus on what is essential: teaching.

Last but not least, PrimSchool does not work on a subscription system. This is a one-off purchase of the software. The price is really reasonable, 49 Euros for a lifetime license. It is free for trainers (ERUN, CPC, techno-pedagogue).

PrimSchool also offers a school license. Until now available only via an individual license, PrimSchool now offers a Bachelor's degree "School". Schools can thus acquire a certain number of licenses for their teachers, at an advantageous price (from 5 classes).

You can download and use PrimSchool for free for a period of 30 days. Don't deny yourself.

PrimSchool a really interesting complete solution for primary school teachers (but not only) wishing to simplify the management of their class and save valuable time.
