Beedle Classroom & Parent Engagement in Teams

Beedle extends Microsoft Teams with a powerful suite of tools for schools, streamlining classroom management, supporting student success, and strengthening the school-home connection, all within the familiar Teams environment. While teachers and students work in Teams, parents stay informed through a free mobile app. Natively built into Microsoft Teams, Beedle is secure, easy to adopt, and ready to use in minutes.

Beedle Classroom & Parent Connection
Beedle Classroom equips teachers with intuitive, pedagogically sound tools that simplify daily tasks and provide a comprehensive overview of their classes and student. They can quickly create random groups, select students at random, and export class or group lists to support planning and classroom activities.
Student Journal allows educators to track behavior, reflections, and notes throughout the year, with powerful search, filter, tagging, and sharing options. Journal entries can be shared with colleagues, students, and parents, supporting a collaborative and transparent learning environment.
Attendance enables teachers to quickly register presence, manage absences, and stay on top of student participation.
Announcements can be shared with individual classes or across the school, with the option of including parents.
Beedle also enables secure Teacher-Parent Messaging through a dedicated space in Teams. Teachers communicate via Teams chat, while parents reply through the Beedle Parent App.
Beedle supports School Data Sync (SDS), spreadsheet imports, and manual data entry to keep parent information up to date.

Beedle Parent App
The Beedle Parent App bridges the gap between school and home, keeping guardians informed and engaged in their child’s education, without adding extra work for teachers. While educators work entirely within Microsoft Teams, parents stay connected through a free mobile app available on iOS and Android.
The app provides real-time insights into Teams Assignments, including assigned, handed-in, and returned work, with due dates, instructions, attachments, feedback, and grades, all automatically synced from Teams.
Parents can securely use Messaging to communicate with teachers, receive important Announcements, and access shared Student Journal entries to stay informed about their child’s daily experiences and progress.
The app also includes optional Attendance tracking, allowing parents to view attendance records, receive absence alerts, and report absences directly. An integrated Calendar helps families stay on top of upcoming deadlines, events, and school activities. Customized Notifications ensure parents are alerted to what matters most.
For families with more than one child, the app supports Multi-Student Management, even across different schools.

Planning & Assessment
Beedle Planning helps teachers stay organized and streamline their workflows. Educators create and organize lesson plans with Teams Assignments, digital resources and Curriculum Objectives. Plans can be shared and reused across classes and school years.
Teachers can also define and share Curriculum Objectives and success criteria, track formative Assessment, and maintain digital grade books with support for ad-hoc grading and objective-based evaluation.
A built-in Calendar provides an overview of scheduled lessons and helps teachers navigate between Plans, Objectives, and Assignments.
