Toddle is one stop solution for IB PYP teachers that seamlessly integrates curriculum planning, portfolios, evidence collection, progress reports and communication. Toddle has a web end as well as a mobile end. The Toddle platform has 4 different types of users - Teachers, Students, Parents, and School Administrators. Below is a brief summary of what each type of user can use the platform for:

Teachers: Teachers use Toddle for planning (Programme of Inquiry, Unit Plans, Lesson Plans etc), for collecting evidences in line with IB requirements, for continuous reflection, for assessment evaluation and for contributing to student portfolios. The planning process is guided and is in line with the PYP approach.

Students: Students use Toddle to document their learning journeys, set their personalised goals, receive and self-evaluate assessments, and add work to their portfolios.

Parents: Parents are linked to individual students and can see their portfolios. Parents also get access to school calendar, school news, and school policies through the Toddle Family app. The app can also be used for communicating with teachers.

Administrators: Administrators can edit and approve all the academic plans, add, delete and edit the rights of other users from their organisation. They can also see insights for better program implementation.

Toddle is a signatory to the Student Privacy Pledge, agreeing to a set of principles intended to safeguard student privacy, including responsible stewardship, protection, and transparent handling of student personal information. Read more about the Student Privacy Pledge .

Toddle participates in the iKeepSafe Safe Harbor program. If you have any questions or need to file a complaint related to our privacy policy and practices, please do not hesitate to contact the iKeepSafe Safe Harbor program at COPPAprivacy@ikeepsafe.org.

Schools must get verifiable parental consent for using Toddle for children below legal age (as specified by the local laws). The legal age of children in the USA is 13 years. In case you come across an instance where Toddle is collecting information from a student without parental consent, please contact us immediately at privacy@toddleapp.com

We do not encourage children to share their work publicly. We continuously review and update our practices to ensure compliance with COPPA requirements.

We follow the latest, industry standards to protect your data. Some measures that are in place include use of highly secure, access-controlled data centres, data encryption in transit, and encryption data at rest etc.

Despite these measures, in the event of a security breach, we will notify affected account holders within the amount of time required by the local law or by Toddle’s internal data breach policy, whichever is more stringent, so that you can take steps to keep your data safe.

We may from time to time make changes to this Privacy Policy to account for changes to our practices or applicable law.
