Toddle

Toddle is a teaching and learning platform for K–12 schools, with tools for curriculum planning, assessment, classroom operations, and school management. Planning supports unit, lesson, and weekly plans, curriculum mapping, and analytics. Assessments and Gradebook handle standards- or score-based assessment, multimodal feedback, grading, and student performance analytics. Toddle AI includes assistance for curriculum design, assignments, grading and feedback, progress reports, and writing, as well as AI tutors. Class Operations covers attendance, timetables, and a calendar; other modules address behaviour management and accreditation management. Toddle lists more than 50 integrations, including SIS platforms, Google and Microsoft tools, Zoom, Clever, and Turnitin. It also describes two-way data syncing with SIS products such as Veracross, PowerSchool, Blackbaud, iSAMS, Compass, TASS, Sentral, Synergetic, and Edumate. The platform is available on the web, Android, and iOS. Schools and districts can request a free trial with access to all features, setup assistance, and team training; trials typically run 2–3 weeks. Paid pricing is tiered by user count and tailored to school needs, with no numeric plan prices listed.

Toddle brings planning, assessment, AI assistance, and school operations into one platform, with integrations and a trial available to schools. Pricing is user-tiered and tailored, so schools will need to request details.

Toddle is for K–12 schools seeking tools for curriculum planning, assessment, and school operations. Schools and districts can request a trial to evaluate the full feature set with setup assistance and team training.

Toddle is a broad K–12 platform for schools that want teaching, assessment, planning, and administration in one workspace. It is strongest for schools coordinating curriculum across multiple grades and connecting classroom work to an existing student-information system. The trade-off is that its tailored, user-based commercial model requires a sales conversation before a school can judge total cost.

Overview

Founded in 2019, Toddle combines curriculum planning, assessment, gradebook, attendance, timetables, calendars, behaviour management, and accreditation management. Bringing those functions together can reduce handoffs between curriculum leaders, teachers, and administrators. A school seeking only a curriculum mapper or an assessment book may find the wider system more than it needs.

Toddle lists more than 50 integrations, spanning SIS products, Google and Microsoft tools, Zoom, Clever, and Turnitin. It supports two-way data synchronisation with Veracross, PowerSchool, Blackbaud, iSAMS, Compass, TASS, Sentral, Synergetic, and Edumate. That is a practical advantage for schools already using one of those systems and wanting student data to move in both directions rather than being re-entered.

Key features

Curriculum and assessment

Curriculum Planning covers unit, lesson, and weekly planning, curriculum mapping, and analytics. Its standards library, approval workflow, and support for all curriculum levels suit schools that need common structures across grades while retaining a formal review step before plans are adopted.

Assessments and Gradebook support standards-based or score-based assessment, multimodal feedback, grading, and student-performance analytics. Schools can choose an approach that matches their reporting model, while analytics can help staff identify progress patterns. The value is greatest when teachers and leaders need planning and evidence of learning in the same system.

AI and school operations

Toddle AI provides curriculum-design and assignment assistants, grading and feedback support, progress-report assistance, writing assistance, and AI tutors. This range can reduce routine drafting and feedback work, but schools will still need clear internal expectations for how AI-generated material is reviewed and used.

Class Operations includes attendance, timetables, and a calendar. Separate modules for behaviour and accreditation extend the platform into administrative work, making Toddle a better fit for schools seeking one operating environment than for teams that deliberately keep teaching and administration separate.

Security and reliability

Toddle describes multi-factor authentication, continuous monitoring, end-to-end encryption, secure APIs, and role-based access controls. It lists SOC 2 Type 2 plus ISO 42001, ISO 27001, ISO 27701, ISO 27017, and ISO 27018 certifications. Data-residency options include Australia, the US, Europe, and other regions. The Privacy and Security Hub states 24/7 support and 99.9% uptime, useful considerations for schools with strict operational and compliance requirements.

Pricing

Toddle has no free plan. Pricing is tiered by user count and tailored to each school, so every plan uses custom pricing rather than a published figure. Schools and districts can request a free trial with access to all features, setup assistance, and team training; trials typically last two to three weeks.

• Toddle Planning Pro: for schools focused on curriculum planning, with user-tiered pricing. It is the most targeted choice for planning teams, but it does not represent the full teaching-and-learning scope.
• Toddle Essentials: a teaching and learning solution that includes Planning Pro, with user-tiered pricing. It suits schools wanting a broader core deployment, while the lack of a public price makes budgeting dependent on a quote.
• Toddle Ultimate: an AI-enabled teaching and learning package that includes Essentials, with user-tiered pricing. It is aimed at schools that want the complete feature progression and AI assistance, but larger user counts can materially affect the final contract.

There are no published seat quotas, numeric usage allowances, renewal terms, or plan prices to compare. Schools should ask for those terms, along with the cost of the desired integrations and deployment scope, before committing.

Platforms

Toddle runs on Android, iOS, and the web. The combination supports mobile access for teachers and students while retaining browser-based administration for school teams.

Who it's for

Toddle fits K–12 schools and districts that want curriculum, assessment, AI support, and daily operations connected, especially those using a compatible SIS and requiring approval workflows across curriculum levels. It is less suitable for a small team that needs one narrow tool, a school that requires transparent self-serve pricing, or an organisation unwilling to manage a broad platform rollout.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Planning, assessment, gradebook, operations, behaviour, and accreditation are consolidated; two-way SIS links can reduce duplicate data entry; standards, approvals, and all curriculum levels support coordinated governance; security controls, certifications, regional residency, 24/7 support, and stated 99.9% uptime address institutional requirements; the trial includes every feature, setup help, and team training.
• Cons: No free tier is available; all plans use custom, user-tiered pricing; published information gives no numeric quotas or renewal terms; the platform’s breadth can be unnecessary for schools seeking only a focused curriculum or assessment product.

Alternatives

For a narrower curriculum-management search, compare Curriculum Management Software and Eportfolio Software lists. Choose ExamSoft instead when an exam-focused platform is the priority and a deployment spanning iOS, macOS, web, and Windows is useful; its integrations and services can be add-ons. Modern Campus CMS is an alternative paid product available on Android, iOS, web, API, and self-hosted environments.

Ilios is a paid, open-source option for organisations that want community-developed software and self-hosting choices. OpenCurriculum is the better starting point for a low-cost curriculum workflow: its free Teacher tier allows one user and 10 courses, while Team allows up to 10 users and 50 courses. Atlas suits schools wanting a curriculum product with a free standards-library tier and a free trial. Outcomap is preferable for users who want a freemium mapping tool with a forever-free tier. PeopleGrove Engagement Hub and Coursedog Curriculum Management are other paid alternatives, with PeopleGrove offering a free plan and Coursedog supporting API and web access.

Verdict

Choose Toddle if your school wants one connected system for curriculum governance, assessment, AI-assisted teaching, and school operations, particularly with a supported SIS. Look elsewhere if you need a single-purpose tool, a free tier, or predictable public pricing before engaging sales.
