The dossier an academic coordinator asks for
Before approving a tool, a school needs to know what it is aligned to, what data it touches and what comes next. All three answers are here.
-
Alignment: CEFR declared lesson by lesson
There's no «approximate level» to the app: each lesson carries its level and CEFR equivalence in the file itself, and the system rejects any label outside the closed list. 12 declared levels, from Pre-A1 up to C2 in grammar and pragmatics and B1/B1+ in measured vocabulary — every student on their own step, whatever their age: in a bilingual school, a primary pupil may already be at B2. Declared isn't filled: content lands level by level.
-
Sequence: 24 structures and a single vocabulary ledger
The progression isn't a list of topics: it's a ledger where every word knows which lessons it appears in, and comes back on average 8.7 lessons later. On top of it sit 24 grammar structures from a closed, validated list. That lets us say what has been worked on, not just what has been seen.
-
What the teacher sees
Progress per student and per group, lessons assigned and completed, and which students are falling behind. Enough to act in class on Monday.
-
What the school cannot see, by design
No recording of the student’s voice: it is processed for feedback and discarded. The school’s leadership can see each student’s progress, read-only, but not unseen: it reads only through database functions that log every view, and the family can see in the app how many views the school made in the last 30 days.
The programme in numbers
None of these numbers is written by hand on this page: they come from the design of the programme and from the vocabulary ledger, and they describe how the course is built — not how many songs got recorded this week.

What the school gets
A school doesn't buy songs: it buys a rollout that has to work on Monday morning. This is what the licence includes.
- A teacher dashboard with each student's and each group's progress, and who is falling behind.
- Students enrolled by licence, with no minor having to create a personal account or hand over their own data. Families can also request a place from the app with the class code, and the teacher approves it.
- The full catalogue, no song limit, in every language we teach.
- The five steps of each lesson designed to fit inside one class period.
- Invoicing to the school and a named contact, not a form.
Coming soon Almost there. This is what we're finishing for schools:
- Teacher dashboard In the final stage. Today we demo it with sample data.
- LMS export Coming soon.
- Standardised assessment Coming soon.
