After partnering with Blackburn Diocese Board of Education, Blippit was in a position to help church schools with Blippit Boards. We'd previously taken part in governor training in preparation for SIAMS Inspection and were struck by just how many photos/printouts/on-display moments there were, seemingly everywhere, that there valuable from a SIAMS perspective. Organising it, adding value and avoiding duplication became the mission.
With the app we let our school users to get themselves on a front foot. To know with confidence that you have exceptional moments of learning happening every day across the curriculum is liberating. Just imagine.
It's a new way to work smarter
At the time, then Deputy Headteacher Finola Jackson from a Cheshire primary and now Head in a different school, shared her views on how quickly Blippit Boards was adopted. Finola's initial focus was SIAMS.
A Chart View
It's very easy to see which SIAMS inspection questions your school has captured moments. Each segment can be clicked to drill down and list the underlying SIAMSÂ tagged boards that one tap can turn into a PDF or Word report. SIAMS related moments don't live in a vacuum and so you also get the context of each SIAMSÂ related moment too.
Reports
Filtering to create reports to share with colleagues or visitors is very simple and intuitive now in version 3 of Blippit Boards launched in January 2026. Below you can see SIAMS tags plus a couple of other categories. Filtering and reporting can give a narrow and focused view or a wider contextual view e.g. a teacher can capture and share with the intention of the focus being RE, but at the same time, SIAMS can be tagged too for efficiency.
