Toddle’s first year in Australia has been a journey of incredible learning and growth. We’ve not only built a strong community of educators but also partnered with over a hundred schools.
More importantly, we’ve connected with dozens of educators to truly understand their needs in an LMS. These valuable insights have helped us create a teacher-first platform that goes beyond the traditional LMS.
We’re honoured to have our efforts recognised by The Educator Service Provider Awards, winning in two categories: Best LMS and Best AI Implementation.
So, where did it all begin?
Picture a group of educators coming together to build a platform that solves their everyday challenges — just as a passion project — and end up building a global powerhouse. Growing from a team of 5 working out of their school’s ICT lab to more than 400 employees in 17 countries in the space of 5 years. It is the stuff of dreams.
It is also the story of Toddle. Started as a passion project by five educators, Toddle launched in 2019 and is now used by more than 2,000 schools across 100+ countries.
We are a mission-driven company aiming to make the teachers’ lives easier. As Deepanshu Arora, CEO of Toddle, articulates, Toddle’s “Big Hairy Audacious Goal is to give teachers back 10 hours every week while helping them elevate their practice.”
We’re doing 3 things to achieve this:
- Building Toddle as a one-stop shop for all the teaching learning needs of educators,
- Providing every teacher with a powerful AI-assistant, and,
- Integrating deeply with your favourite tools to provide a seamless experience.
Toddle is the only platform that brings together everything from long term curriculum planning to day-to-day teaching and learning. With Toddle, teachers can:
- create units and engaging, differentiated lesson plans
- visualise automatically generated curriculum maps and gain insights into gaps in curriculum
- create interactive, auto-corrected quizzes,
- send work to students, receive their submissions and provide personalised feedback through audio, video and annotations
- add their work to portfolios, evaluate student work with grades seamlessly moving to the gradebook
- create beautiful, next generation, visual progress reports with embedded evidence from student work in the form of photos and videos
- build vibrant parent communities with “Toddle Connect” – Toddle’s powerful communication tool
What we bring to the table
Toddle is the only platform that meaningfully connects long term curriculum planning with day to day teaching & learning. More than 85% of schools replace three or more platforms with Toddle — some replacing as many as 7!
Toddle’s AI assistant is deeply embedded within Toddle’s workflows and goes beyond simply generating content. It offers an iterative experience where the AI acts as a partner for teachers; making the experience almost addictively fun and delightful.
To cap it all off, is Toddle’s School Success team. Toddle follows a unique model of supporting schools through “Toddle Buddies”.
“The one-line job description of a Toddle Buddy is to make sure that their school is happy with and getting value out of Toddle.”
Nick Morgan (Director, Aus/NZ)
All Toddle buddies are ex-educators who truly understand the day-to-day life of a teacher.
Toddle also provides 24×7 chat support with average response time less than 3 minutes! This unique support model coupled with a very intuitive platform, helps schools get up and running with Toddle in just 56 days on average.
This recognition is not just a milestone for us but a reminder of the impact we can have when we listen to the educator community.
As we move forward, we want to continue refining our platform and driving innovation that genuinely enhances the teaching and learning experience. Together, we’re excited to shape the future of education in Australia and beyond!
