What is Educator?
Educator is a browser-based revision practice app for GCSE and KS3 students. Students answer short practice questions in sessions of 10–15 cards. The app covers 10 subjects across all major UK exam boards. It is used in school as a homework and class tool, set and monitored by the teacher. There is no downloading, no account creation beyond a school sign-up, and no features unrelated to revision practice.
Educator is a commercial subscription service, supplied to schools under a formal agreement. The school's Head of Department manages access. Students do not pay and do not provide payment details.
Domains to allow
Allow the following two domains on your content filter for all student and staff devices:
*.educator-labs.comMain application — all revision content, teacher dashboard, student sessions
clerk.educator-labs.comAuthentication — sign-in and sign-up only. Hosted on the Educator subdomain.
No other external domains are required for standard student use. Error reporting (Sentry) is routed through the same educator-labs.com origin. Analytics are cookieless and server-side only.
