Case Study


We spoke to Elliot Mercer, Head of Co-Curricular Music to find out more.
When did you start using Involve Education? 

"We had a bit of back and forth as we needed to make sure that the system would be well suited for our needs and it was obvious that using Involve would be an improvement on the way we were previously running our music lessons. The team were very quick to answer questions and help us get sorted for the beginning of the academic year."

How has it changed the way you run your music department admin?

"It’s great to have the personalised email sent to subject teachers. They receive an email every day letting the know if any of their pupils will be leaving their lessons for a singing or instrumental music lesson."

What's your favourite Involve feature?

"Putting in subject restrictions and having these show up for everyone and anyone that I set it for - game changer!"

How have you found working with the Practice Pal team? 

"Great! Very responsive."

Out of 10 how likely would you be to recommend Involve to a friend working in a similar music department?

"8/10, it’s transformed how efficiently the department runs!"
