Testimonials

“TurningPoint is instant, thought provoking, and forces everyone to participate, all factors which change the usefulness and shape of the results.”

Dave Thompson, Inspector for ICT, Worcestershire LEA

"TurningPoint is certainly an effective tool that can be used right across the curriculum."

BETT Awards Judges

"I've got the voting system working perfectly - 8 statements on screen, 3 rounds, 4 votes, 4 votes, 2 votes, and in each round you can spread the votes. At the end it's a piece of cake to tally up in Excel."


Richard Taylor, Adviser (ICT), School Improvement Service, Northumberland County Council

"The use of TurningPoint addresses many of the issues around assessment for learning. It allows the teacher to assess on a range of measures including individual performance and group performance against a particular teaching point."


BETT Awards Judges

"This is a hugely flexible product that could have a significant impact on teaching and learning across all phases and subject areas."


BETT Awards Judges

"The software is quickly mastered by totally inexperienced users. The product is easy to use in real time and very flexible."


BETT Awards Judges

"All members of the educational community can be supported through use of this product. Evidence of this came from a range of sources, for example, LA advisers using it to monitor the student voice related to Schools of the Future, teachers using it to test recall of historical facts and pupils using it to express opinion about the impact of WW2 on people at the time."


BETT Awards Judges

"Analysis of performance enables teacher planning to meet pupil needs identified through analysis of data gathered in a session, using principles of assessment for learning.  This provides opportunities to tailor content to meet the needs of individual learners and the ability to track learners' progress, either by following their activities or by reporting on tasks that are assessed."

BETT Awards Judges...

"The open-ended nature of the 'Turning Point' kit provides a flexible resource that teachers can tailor to enhance teaching and learning strategies to support creativity."

BETT Awards Judges

"The product facilitates discussion and collaboration. It encourages participation by all including normally reluctant contributors who lack confidence. It involves all pupils and builds the confidence of more timid learners."


BETT Awards Judges

“I'm thrilled to bits! Was a bit anxious about how to use it but in fact it took me just half an hour to produce a set of slides for different materials with 2 simple responses for each, conductor or insulator. The children voted for what they thought, then tried out the materials in their circuits, and referred their results back to their original responses on the slides. Fantastic!”

Pam Marsh, St Mary's Catholic Pri...

"To summarise my feedback would be that the voting is easy to set up, easy to use, simple to understand, has lots of tools to allow instant feedback and has the ability to collate/ present data in an easy format."

Mark Weller, Infrastructure Specialist, Research Machines PLC
