🏫 Hootle Academy for schools

Your school, inside the games your students love.

Any school, kindergarten or learning centre can work with Hootle: your name on the certificates your students win, and your own lessons inside our games.

What you get

Two ways to make Hootle your own.

🏅

Your name on the certificates

When your students finish a chapter, the certificate they win carries your school’s name beside Hootle Academy — something to take home and be proud of.

📚

Your lessons in our games

Send us what you teach — word problems, reading passages, vocabulary, quiz questions — and we turn it into chapters your students play, in your language.

  • A document or spreadsheet is enough
  • No technical skills needed
💚

Free, for every school

No fee, no contract, no minimum size. A village kindergarten is as welcome as a big city school.

In the classroom

The classroom TV, turned into a lesson.

There are moments in every school day when the class needs something to do on its own. Hootle runs on the TV you already have, and a remote is all it takes.

    Ten minutes to start the day

    The whole class solves a puzzle together on the big screen, one child holding the remote, everyone calling out the answer.

  • 🧺

    While you are busy

    Greeting a parent, marking books, setting up the next activity: the children play a chapter, and finish with stars to show you.

  • 🧩

    A learning corner

    One tablet in the corner of the room, children taking turns. Nothing to sign in to, so a new child can pick it up straight away.

No ads, no chat, nothing to sign in to, nothing that plays on by itself — so you can look away for a few minutes.

How it works

Four steps, no paperwork.

  1. Send the form

    Tell us who you are and what you would like. It takes two minutes.

  2. We write back

    A real person from Hootle replies by email to talk it through.

  3. We build it together

    You check your name and logo; we shape your lessons into games and you review them.

  4. Your students play

    They open Hootle on any phone, tablet, TV or PC — no accounts, no ads.

Who can join

Anyone who teaches children 3–12.

🧸 Kindergartens & preschools 🏫 Primary schools 🎒 Lower secondary schools 📐 Learning & tutoring centres ♞ Chess & math clubs 🏡 Homeschool groups 📖 Libraries & non-profits

What stays the same for your students.

  • Free for your school. Now and later — this is not a trial.
  • No ads, not a single one, in any game.
  • No student accounts. We never ask for a child’s name, email or class list.
  • Your content stays yours. You can ask us to take it out at any time.

Questions

Before you ask.

Is it really free?

Yes. Putting your name on the certificates and your lessons in the games costs your school nothing, and there is nothing to sign.

Do my students need accounts or email addresses?

No. Hootle has no accounts and collects nothing that identifies a child. Students simply open the app.

What kind of lessons can we add?

Math word problems, patterns and riddles, short reading passages with questions, vocabulary and quiz questions — the kinds of things already in Hootle’s games. Tell us what you teach and we will find the right game for it.

Which languages?

Hootle speaks more than 50 languages, read aloud. Send your lessons in the language you teach in.

What do you do with the details in the form?

We use them only to reply to you and to set up your school. We never sell or share them, and we delete them if you ask.
