Everest is an innovative solution from EDU365 that has been designed and built to simplify many of the tasks undertaken by teachers and school leadership teams daily.
Everest is a hosted solution which means that it’s quick to implement and there is a minimal maintenance and support overhead for schools.
Key data will be read from SIMS and presented in a clear, modern interface. New data is written back to SIMS and there is no duplication.
Everest is thoughtfully designed, so very little training is needed. From day one teachers will be comfortable using it to find and capture information.
It provides a simple, quick way for heads of department to monitor activity for each class.
The Student and Parent Apps provide a single place to go for published work and resources, simplify communication, provide access to general information and encourage engagement across the whole school community.
Everest will keep life simple for schools, teachers, parents and students. It has an attractive, standardised interface and everything is easily accessible in one place, unlike SIMS which has SIMS Parent, SIMS Teacher and Homework apps.
The homework module has enabled teachers to collect, mark, feedback, and return student work. As many of our teachers were operating in many different countries and time zones, this allowed us to work effectively from where they were located. Despite being away from the school for a number of weeks, we are still able to collate student grades and create reports in order to ensure learning is taking place.

When Covid-19 hit, we were in the middle of our school holidays and were quickly faced with the situation of converting our bricks and mortar school into an online school. This posed many challenges for all members of the community. Everest provided us with an effective means to communicate with students and parents, issue work, and continue our reporting and assessment cycle. Everest has an easy to use interface which means that students and parents can easily find the work that is required of them and receive direct communications from their teachers.

I am really enjoying using Everest. The daily class attendance is a great electronic way for me to track and monitor attendance whilst the gradebook is saving me tons of paper and time, as I can enter my formative assessments on the spot, from my iPad. This is exactly the tool that I needed.

Everest makes it so easy to do the things that seem to take longer in SIMS.
I like that I can use it on my tablet – it’s got an up-to-date look about it.
I use it to communicate with parents – it’s easy.

Everest has been welcomed by staff, parents and students alike as it is easy and simple to use. It also interfaces seamlessly with our school management system, SIMS, which is saving us time.

Since the school’s been closed I’ve been joining live lessons, via Everest, so my days have been as near to normal as they can be! I’ve also been able to hand in my work and get feedback from my teachers so my homework is the best it can be. Handing in work is very quick and easy to do.

Truro School has found Everest intuitive to use, was quick and easy to set up and adopted by our staff after a relatively brief training in September 2019. The parent body welcomed the App and pupils quickly adapted to using the homework module and checking to see ‘the work on Everest’. Customer support has been outstanding.

Everest is so easy to use and everything I need to keep tabs on my school work is in one place on my phone — I love it!
Eleri, Student
I just wanted to tell you that I love the new Everest EDU365 app. It’s so easy to keep track of my daughter’s homework, to know where she is during the day, her teachers and classes. Other parents are also very appreciative to be able to log in and see what’s happening with our kids. Easy to use and very helpful.

Everest, from EDU365, combines all the key functionality usually distributed across several expensive, disconnected systems used in schools, and delivers clear insight and efficiency. Quite simply, this transforms the educational experience for every stakeholder, reduces the maintenance overhead and the opportunity for information mismatch.
Everest was built for and by teachers to dramatically reduce the operational “noise” within the complex school environment and allow all stakeholders to focus on what matters.
Using the very latest technology and combining decades of educator experience, Everest is a mobile-first solution that provides a simple clean interface for your SIMS implementation. Everest is able to:
Simply because Everest can help to deliver all the improvements schools need with none of the complexity and at a fraction of the cost of the multiple legacy school systems that attempt to achieve this.
