Talk Think Do, an established Microsoft Gold Partner and small Software Architecture House in Wimborne, Dorset won the Transformation through Technology Award at the 2021 UK Business Technology Awards in London.
The company attended the awards ceremony along with their co-nominated client Explore Learning at the Montcalm Hotel on Wednesday 13th October, alongside other finalists which included Octopus Energy, EY, RAC and Experian.
Talk Think Do’s CEO, Matt Hammond said –
“Much has been written about the accelerated pace of transformation over the last year and a half and we have experienced that first-hand, with a multi-year technology roadmap accelerated and delivered in months.”
The feedback from the UK Business Technology Awards highlighted the impact of the software, sharing that it was, “An impressive submission with tangible, measurable benefits. The impact here from both technology transformation and human engagement / support perspectives really stood out to us. We liked the capability and personalisation of the platform – engagement for kids and support for parents and tutors alike.”
Together with Explore Learning's data scientist and curriculum team we developed and refined an adaptive tool that analyses each student’s learning history, including the questions they’ve been set and the results. This provides data that can be used to tailor their individual learning path through different strands in the curriculums to the correct level for their ability to keep them engaged and over the past 18 months:
- Member retention increased from 65% to 95%
- There are 1.3 million questions being answered by children every week
- 190,000 new skills, as set by National Curriculum, are mastered each week
- 41,000 1-hour child sessions are delivered per week
Explore Learning can now operate fully remotely, but more importantly, they have the ability to expand their business on a global scale with a platform that allows them to rapidly accelerate their transformation, using technology to set their business up for future growth.
