Who are Frog?
We started out as enthusiastic tech people, building software that allowed non-technical teachers to create exciting learning resources to help them engage their students.
We’ve become education experts, we’ve learned how to make a real impact on children's lives. For 20 years our products have been changing the way that schools and teachers teach.
What we do
Frog allows teachers to focus on every child as an individual, whether that’s identifying areas where they need help, providing differentiated learning experiences, or giving them rich, formative feedback.
Rather than asking more of today’s increasingly burdened teachers, Frog does this in a way that can reduce teacher workload, by for example automating things like curriculum linked homework, while providing deep insights into where children need support.
At Frog we believe that if we find the right people everything else will fall into place. Our team consists of the most inspiring, hard working, and talented people in the industry and we’re proud to be here.
