Dolphin System – Extended Learning

Develop the ICT skills of your whole school community

The school family licensing scheme allows families to access Dolphin from home, opening up a world of possibilities beyond the classroom:

  • pupils can access their own progress charts from home
  • parents can view the materials and so become more involved in their children's learning
  • pupils can consolidate their learning by tutoring their parents in what they have learned
  • family members can be set up on the system with their own progress charts
  • switchable helps allow the home learning to take place using different software if necessary

Raise money for your school ICT budget

Where a school subscribes to the family licensing scheme, families can access the materials as follows: 

  • Family licence - special price of £20 per family
  • Only one payment per family, no matter how many siblings - single payment covers the family’s use of Dolphin for the entire time that they have pupils at the school, for as long as the school continues to subscribe to the scheme

A substantial portion of the licence fee in the first year (typically 70%) is retained by the school and can be used to fund other software purchases.  

How does it work?

The school initially makes a single purchase of an appropriate number of licences from Dolphin Learning.  Licence codes are then allocated to the school.  These codes are then reused for other families In subsequent years, with the school paying an ongoing annual fee.

Families purchase their licences from the school and the school issues them with the relevant licence codes. 

All paperwork for the scheme (explanatory letters to parents etc) is available in electronic format, so that it can be customised where necessary and printed on school headed paper.

"It’s really good. I liked it because I think it’s going to teach me to be more confident. I used to feel really not confident [on the computer] but now I’m feeling much more confident having joined the after school tutoring, because I’m going to teach my Grandma. It feels like my Grandma is like someone in Primary 1 who doesn’t know much on the computer and I know more than her!"
