Regain 3 Weeks of Lost Learning In Every Classroom
Studybugs Registers is a groundbreaking system for taking the register in primary schools. Children tap themselves in, choose their lunch and get on with learning. It’s as simple as that. Schools using it are gaining 3 weeks* of teaching time every year, in every classroom.
* Average figure determined by timing registration sessions before and after introducing Studybugs Registers. Similar figures were observed regardless of whether schools were previously taking paper or electronic registers.
It’s So Simple a 4-Year-Old Can Use It
In fact, thousands of 4-year-olds use it every day.
“Children and staff think it’s absolutely fabulous!”
“The children quickly got the hang of signing themselves in… within 5 minutes of walking through the classroom door they have put their belongings away, registered and are ready to begin learning.”
“I’m finding I’m getting nearly another full half an hour of teaching done first thing.”

Methodology
- We sat in and timed actual registration sessions, over a period of one week, before introducing Studybugs Registers.
- Schools then introduced Studybugs Registers.
- We waited a week, to be sure teachers and children were fully up to speed with the new system.
- We timed registration sessions again, in the same classes, over another week. Projections are based on average figures across all classes.
“Thank you again for our two extra weeks of learning every year!”
