Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Most reviewers were somewhat happy with their experience overall. Many customers find the platform to be an excellent learning tool, appreciating the clear explanations of concepts and the challenging questions. They highlight its ease of use, the good range of resources across subjects, and its effectiveness in boosting children's confidence and supporting independent learning. People also find the content to be of high quality, with lessons that are easy to manage and engaging for children. However, some people were dissatisfied with the subscription model and reported issues with customer service, including unaddressed inquiries. There were also concerns regarding the user experience, with some finding the interface confusing, assignments not registering as completed, and the recommended assignment feature not working as advertised. A few other people also felt that some questions were unclear, badly designed, or had incorrect answers marked as wrong, and noted difficulties with the search function and the lack of a dark mode.

Great lessons easy to manage for my 11 years old son. Easy to understand. A lot of assessments to assign.

I like how it explains concepts before it delves into the questions and I like how the questions are challenging no matter the age or grade.

An Excellent Education Platform that we…

An Excellent Education Platform that we use to support our daughter’s education with a focus on maths, the sciences and English. Three small bugbear; there is an English exercise that my daughter did that requires manual marking and still hasn’t been marked weeks after completing. If you answer a maths question e.g. 59.0 rather than 59, the platform will mark that as wrong ?! Finally some of the exercises could and would benefit from supplementary moving image content, at the moment this is not the case for all exercise. That said, still much used and much appreciated learning platform.

This app has made me feel so supported especially with the teacher feedback on all of the questions and amount of sessions available is great. Very grateful for this as I know without this, it would be so difficult to make sure I'm covering everything I need to. I only hope the price doesn't go up as it's just affordable for my family's circumstances, although, I wouldn't dispute it's at a fair price now for what we get.

I would not recommend

My child finds a lot of the questions hard to understand even after trying them several times. The activities that are supposed to be automatically assigned aren't and the "help desk" is less than helpful. Difficult to navigate and to find the right work to assign. Using the website is hugely stressful and my child hates it too. I've paid for a year so will continue to try to use it but it is definitely a case of you get what you pay for. It's cheap for a reason.

Hi Teri,
We’re sorry to hear that you’re having difficulty with using your EdPlace account, but don't worry, we're here to help you get the most out of your subscription. Activities are automatically recommended and assigned from Year 1 to Year 9, but at GCSE level, this is a lot more complex due to the different exam boards students may be studying for. As we type, our data science team are currently working on enhancing the recommendations feature for students! Do reach out to our support team at help@edplace.com who will be happy to arrange a call to assist you.
All the best,

The site is really helpful as I have recently started homeschooling my 13 year old. I use the site for maths. There are also assessments which are helpful as this will then give me recommendations for my child. I think the site is great value for money as all math topics are covered, aswell as English and science.

Remember to cancel if you’re not using regularly

UPDATE:
After escalating my complaint edplace have agreed to refund the three months unused subscription. My account at edplace has been closed on their request.
Other than my negative experience with their customer services department the website was very fun and easy to use and my son loved it.
——-
I was signed up for the £15 a month subscription but didn't use the platform from January 2023 and forgot to cancel it. Edplace do not send email reminders that the direct debit will be taken each month. I realised my error when checking my bank statement. I had been charged £45 for three months subscription even though their was no activity on the account and I hadn't logged in.

As has become an industry standard lead by other subscription services i.e MUBI, kindle, amazon prime I was not offered a refund for the unused months. I was offered one month credit.

Hi there,
It’s a shame we weren’t able to discuss this with you on the phone call we proposed as we like to resolve issues with customers directly, but instead are keen to explain how EdPlace operates. Our monthly subscriptions are designed to be totally flexible for parents, as you are able to cancel and even pause payment at any time. There are certain costs involved for us as a business even if an account isn’t being used. For this reason, we feel it was fair to offer you a credit rather than a refund. We made this decision as a goodwill gesture based on fairness to all customers as the responsibility for managing payments and preferences related to any subscription rests with the subscriber.
We’d like to wish you and your children all the best for the future.

Awesome app

Awesome app, even my homeschooled 11 year old would call it awesome.

Amazingly, this did keep him aligned in his 4 months out of school and he did return in line with everyone else.

Cannot stress enough how much we needed something like EdPlace and how much it delivered.

Thanks so much… again!

Highly recommend for Home Educators

Ed Place provides my child with the learning she was not receiving at school. It allows my child to do work that is fit for her age and ability and explains the work in full detail. I also love the fact that it is automatically marked for me and I can review her weeks work and see what she is struggling with and might need to have further help with.
