Who we are
About us
ONVU Learning draws upon decades of education experience that ensures that our technology best serves teachers in every stage of their career.
ONVU Learning is a tool that has been meticulously crafted with the direct involvement of experienced educators who understand the nuances and challenges of teaching. Our platform was designed to meet the specific needs of teachers, headteachers and MAT leaders, ensuring its
features and the support we provide resonate with the real-world demands of classroom environments and wider schools.

What we do
Are you often left questioning the real impact of your CPD and teacher training? We recognise that professional development (CPD) should be uniquely tailored to meet your specific needs and be readily available when you need it most.
ONVU Learning works alongside your daily teaching and CPD programmes to boost expertise development. ONVU Learning enables you to observe and evaluate your own teaching methods, empowering you to construct, deliver and review a truly individualised CPD plan.
Are you an early careers teacher (ECT) navigating the exciting yet challenging start to your career? Building confidence from the outset is essential, on a foundation of examined experience. Often, external feedback can seem generic or merely procedural. With ONVU Learning, you have access to your own bank of teaching recordings, allowing for effective self-reflection on key teaching and learning moments.
Moreover, our platform facilitates secure clip sharing, enabling you to highlight and discuss specific classroom moments with your mentor without scheduling extra meetings, thus enriching the mentoring process and conserving valuable time.
What is the true purpose of a lesson observation? To judge, to analyse, or to inform? Traditional observations, often limited by the observer’s presence, provide only a partial view of the classroom dynamics and can induce anxiety.
ONVU Learning transforms this process by using advanced 360° camera technology and high-quality microphones to capture the entirety of the classroom experience authentically. This approach allows teachers and observers to gain a complete understanding of the educational impact, devoid of any performance changes that the presence of an observer causes.
Improving school-wide standards is a formidable challenge, compounded by the high expectations to navigate complex issues with limited resources. ONVU Learning provides you with the tools to ensure consistent teaching and learning, whether across a single school or multiple schools within a MAT.
A consistent teaching approach enhances the learning environment, fostering student confidence and engagement, which in turn leads to improved academic outcomes. Our technology supports this by enabling teachers to capture and share exemplary practices easily, facilitating effective peer and mentor collaboration.
