HelloSchool

What wasn't working

What success looked like

• Put classes, exams and results in one coherent app.
• Work for teachers and students with very different tech comfort.
• Make everyday tasks, like checking a result, effortless.

What I learned first

• Talked to teachers and students about what actually broke when school went online.
• Mapped the lifecycle of a class, from lesson to exam to result.

The hard parts

• One app that serves both the teacher running the class and the student taking it.
• Handling exams and results with the care those moments deserve.

How I worked through it

1. 01

   Map

   Modelled how a real class runs across lessons, exams and results.

2. 02

   Role-aware

   One design language, tuned for teachers and for students.

3. 03

   Simplify

   Cut the clutter that makes school software painful.

Structure before surface

Sketched the teacher and student journeys around a single class and its exam.

The path a user takes

1. 1Teacher sets up a class and schedules an exam
2. 2Students attend and take the exam in-app
3. 3Teacher publishes the results
4. 4Students see their results and feedback clearly

Where it landed

A calm, role-aware e-learning app where running a class online feels as organised as running it in person.

What changed

All-in-one

Classes, exams and results together

Two roles

Teachers and students, one app

Clearer

Exams and results without stress

What I took away

• Edtech has to respect very different levels of tech confidence.
• The exam and result moments deserve the most care.
