We’re excited to announce that v18.1 of Schoolbox is now Gold! This has been a special release for the Schoolbox team, as we have delivered a huge amount of value for our schools. We hope you like it as much as we do!
A quick breakdown of the highlights:
The standout features of this release include:
- Rebuilding the News system by creating a unified platform for all news items, a market-leading audience selector, and a moderation workflow.
- Enhancing rubrics to fully support IB curricula to comply with assessment practices required in environments with strict standards.
- Adding the ability to import existing curriculum design from Atlas into Schoolbox to build courses with ease.
- Facilitating learning leaders’ ability to track student results across the entire cohort, with the introduction of a course markbook.
