Case Study


We spoke to Matthew Raworth, Head of Music and Associate Assistant Headteacher (and 2012 Classic FM Music Teacher of the Year!) to find out more.

I had a demo with Amanda and then we began using Involve in October 2023. 

Since the switch to Involve, the feedback has all been positive.

Long-standing members of staff have asked consistently over the 25 years I have been at the school that we provide accurate notice for students who will miss curriculum lessons for an instrumental/singing lesson. We have finally been able to provide that - the write back into Arbor is first class, gives excellent notification to classroom teachers, and has saved huge amounts of time on locating 'missing' students who turned out to be in a flute lesson!

And the staff at Involve have been great. Friendly and helpful.

It's literally the perfect solution for running instrument/singing lessons in a busy secondary school - the concept is so well thought through, it does everything we need it to and via a totally accessible, user friendly interface. Wish it has been around during COVID lockdowns!!”
