Introducing the New ManageBac Primary Years Portfolio: Making Learning More Impactful

We are thrilled to announce the launch of the new ManageBac Primary Years Portfolio. This first phase marks the beginning of our comprehensive strategy to enhance learning documentation and communication across all programmes. Our goal is to make the process seamless, enjoyable, and highly effective for everyone involved, transforming the way students, teachers, and parents engage with the educational journey.

This is the first step in making it seamless and easy for teachers and schools to document learnings, while providing better visibility and engagement for parents and students. Collaborating with the pilot schools below, we have tailored the ManageBac Portfolio to meet the specific needs of our educational community. Primary Years Portfolio will also be released to Chinese app stores including Tencent.

Streamlining Education in the Digital Age

We understand the complexities of managing the diverse mix of paper-based and digital content involved in documenting and tracking student learning. The new ManageBac Portfolio is here to help you streamline this process, bringing all your materials together in a cohesive and organised way.

Powerful Benefits for Teachers and Parents

PYP teachers can spend countless hours meticulously documenting evidence of their students’ learning, a task that isas time-consuming as it can be rewarding. The ManageBac Portfolio simplifies this process, seamlessly integrating into the flow of teaching, facilitating teacher well-being and effective use of time. Teachers can quickly share classroom activities through images, videos, and documents, highlight students’ learning journeys, and curate portfolios with ease.

Additionally, both parents and children benefit from regular and timely conversations at home about learning experiences in school. Interactive Portfolio Timelines keep parents informed, allowing them to view and engage with their child’s work, leave comments, and show support through likes, fostering a more connected and collaborative learning environment.

Engaging Features for the Learning Journey

Teachers, parents and students can all benefit from an enhanced learning experience with the new ManageBac Portfolio:

• Engagement: Teachers can now create diverse forms of evidence, making it easier to track and understand student progress across various curriculum outcomes.
• Curation: Organising and highlighting students’ best work has been streamlined, allowing for a thoughtful selection that mirrors their educational journey and achievements.
• Showcase: Students’ learning journeys are beautifully collected, curated, and organised into comprehensive portfolios that can be showcased to teachers, parents, and peers.

Looking Ahead: Expanding to Other Curriculums

While this release focuses on the PYP, we are excited to share that our vision extends beyond this initial phase. In our second planned phase, we will expand the ManageBac Portfolio to support additional programmes, further enhancing its value and versatility.

Together, we can transform the way learning is documented and celebrated. We look forward to working with you to support your students’ educational journeys.
