Make inclusive learning visible across your school
Belonging is built through participation in everyday learning. With Seesaw, schools can capture that learning as it happens — making progress easier to see, share and support.

Inside this short guide, you’ll see how schools are using Seesaw to:
- Capture learning during everyday lessons
- Support pupils to show what they know in different ways
- Keep a clear, organised view of progress over time
- Stay connected with families

Seesaw is designed for primary schools
Supporting every pupil should not mean extra paperwork or separate systems.
In many primary schools, inclusive practice already happens every day — the challenge is making that learning visible when evidence is needed.
With Seesaw, learning, feedback and communication sit in one place — instead of being spread across books, notes and separate systems. This makes it easier to:
- See who is taking part
- Spot where pupils need support
- Make small adjustments that have impact
- Reduce workload by building evidence into everyday classroom practice
Learning stays visible, so evidence of progress builds naturally over time.

Clear insights, confident decisions and supportive to every child
Hear how Cheryl Shirley, Director of Digital Learning at Leo Academy Trust, creates a culture of belonging with Seesaw.
As a leader, you need to know whether inclusive practice is actually working, and where pupils may need a bit more support.
Seesaw brings together everyday classroom activity so you can see what’s happening across a class, a school or a trust — without asking teachers to do anything extra. You get a clearer picture of who is accessing learning, who is taking part, and where patterns are starting to emerge.
You can step back to look across groups or year levels, or look more closely at individual pupil evidence when you need to, whether that’s for inspection, review meetings or planning next steps.
Teach once & support everyone
Support inclusive practice where learning actually happens.
Not every child shows what they know in the same way and that’s normal in a busy classroom!
Seesaw gives pupils different ways to respond, whether that’s speaking, drawing, recording video or using text. Learning isn’t limited by writing speed, confidence or who puts their hand up first. You can make adjustments to activities or add scaffolds without rewriting the same lesson again and again — using what you already teach.
As pupils work, it becomes easier to see who’s comfortable, who’s unsure, and who might need a quiet check-in. Support happens during the lesson, not once it’s over and the result is a classroom where more pupils take part, feel capable, and know they belong.
Access that works in the classroom and beyond
Listen to how Tom Mullins and his colleagues use Seesaw to support inclusive practice so that pupils find their voice and express themselves.
Inclusion works best when it’s part of everyday teaching, not something added on afterwards. Seesaw helps teachers make small, practical adjustments so pupils can access the same learning in ways that work for them — without separating pupils or lowering expectations.
Because pupils can respond in different ways, understanding that might otherwise be missed becomes visible. Over time, it becomes easier to see patterns across classes and year groups, and to understand what’s working and where support might need to change.
This makes conversations with staff, leaders and parents and carers more straightforward, because everyone can see the same picture and is part of the learning loop.
Supporting approaches shown to improve pupil outcomes
The Education Endowment Foundation highlights approaches that have a strong impact on pupil outcomes. Seesaw helps schools bring these approaches into everyday classroom practice:
Feedback
+8 Months
Voice Notes: Voice notes make timely, specific feedback easier without adding to marking.
Metacognition
+7 Months
Reflective Portfolios: Help pupils explain their thinking and build independence.
Oral Language
+6 Months
Multimodal Tools: Video and audio tools increase participation, especially when writing is a barrier.
Parental Engagement
+4 Months
Inclusive Messaging: Translation in over 100 languages helps more families understand and support learning.

“The quiet and easily overlooked pupil can get lost within a regular ‘raise your hand to speak’ type of classroom. With Seesaw, every pupil’s voice is heard. That is truly something special.”
