Frequently asked questions

What is Wakelet for School Districts?

Our package for school districts is the best solution for districts who would like to implement Wakelet for whole schools or the entire district, for both teachers and students. Our package for districts includes bulk creation of accounts (so that teachers don’t need to set up accounts for themselves and their students individually), as well as our premium level of support, bespoke PD and onboarding support and analytics about how Wakelet is being used.

Why should I consider a school or district-wide implementation of Wakelet?

There are many benefits of implementing Wakelet across an entire school or district, including:

  • Bulk creation of accounts - you can be sure that all users are set up with the correct login or SSO credentials, using the correct school email address and that all data is being handled in line with your district’s data privacy policies.
  • You will have a structured and bespoke PD training program to help get your teachers going, tailored to your own requirements. This helps you get the maximum value from using Wakelet as quickly as possible, ensures consistency across the school(s) and takes the pressure off your own resources!

You will have a single point of contact in the Wakelet team - always available to answer any questions directly and to coordinate any further assistance you may need from the wider Wakelet team.
