Willow's ability to provide multiple examples and individualized scenarios is a massive strength compared to tools like Senica, which requires looking back through materials.

Willow aligns well with a government announcement of a £200 million training package for SEN, focusing on inclusive practice within classrooms.
Class Teacher, Year 5, Kent
It was really good at giving them back effective scaffolds for how they could use it. It wasn't just giving them straight up things they could use. It was encouraging them to think a little bit more.
Class Teacher, Year 5, London
The role-play function with a Viking character was highly engaging and provided students with historical knowledge that they typically lack in traditional hot seat activities.
Class Teacher, Year 6, Kent
My concern was this is just going to give the children the answers and then they are not learning... but we were very pleased to see that it doesn't give the children the answer, it was literally like if I was speaking to them!
