Summary

We’ve added seven new tag categories based on the 2025 Ofsted framework. They’re not here to add another layer of admin - they’re here to help you see your impact through different lenses. Each tag reflects an area that matters for pupils’ experience: curriculum, inclusion, wellbeing, achievement, leadership and more. Think of these as perspectives for understanding impact, not checklists.Use them in Blippit Boards to spot and tag where strengths shine through, to spark professional conversation

Summary

Over the next six months, we are inviting teachers and leaders to share a single moment from their working day as a short voice note. It does not need to be prepared or polished. A few sentences, spoken in your own words, is all that we're looking for. These contributions will form a collection of simple resources (e.g. short recordings, prompts, or reflections) that schools can use freely in staff meetings, INSET, or for individual reflection.

Summary

With so many teachers using Blippit Boards now, we thought it would be worth sharing our approach to the powerfully simple principle that drives the platform, from evidence capture to seeing it resurface in searches, filters, charts and reports.‍We believe in being as transparent as possible regarding why things are like they are, so, in this post, we will summarise what we do and why when it comes to tags.There are 3 main ways that we meet the tagging needs of all schools.

Summary

But what, you may ask, can Blippit do about the eternal search for things? Well, a big challenge that we all face, with teachers being no exception, is reducing the amount of time spent looking for files of all kinds. The problem with files and directories is that they rely heavily upon teachers remembering lots of things and when you're tired with little time, sometimes, human nature means that things get forgotten. When was the last time you created a meaningful file name but didn't notice...

Summary

When you're gathering and sharing evidence, there are all sorts of 'levels' you can do it at, usually depending on how much time you have. It could be a quick chat with another teacher or subject leader in the hallway, or a more formal sit-down meeting, and everything in between. Each situation has its own 'load,' and Blippit has always aimed to make that load lighter wherever possible. Thanks to feedback from schools, we've just made it even better.
