Class Charts

Overview

Class Charts is school-focused classroom management software that brings behaviour tracking together with attendance, homework, wellbeing and communication tools. It is best suited to schools that want teachers, pupils and families to work from shared student information. Its broad module set is the main draw; schools must request custom pricing before they can judge the cost.

Key features

Teachers can award performance points, define behaviours and achievements to match school policy, and produce whole-school reports. This supports consistent recognition and gives school leaders a way to review behaviour across classrooms. Its usefulness depends on staff applying the school’s chosen categories consistently.

Seating plans draw on recorded data and student interactions, helping teachers create and adjust classroom arrangements. Attendance supports morning and afternoon registers, reporting and pattern identification, so it can serve routine tracking as well as review of attendance patterns.

Teachers can set and track homework, with requirements and deadlines visible to pupils and parents. Tes describes the homework and reward store modules as free for schools, making those functions a potential entry point for schools not ready to adopt the wider paid product.

Other modules cover detentions, communication and wellbeing. Staff can share updates and student performance data with colleagues and parents, while the wellbeing module highlights concerns and provides support resources. Class Charts can connect with key MIS systems through writeback, or schools can ask about integration through Wonde. Tes also describes links with MyConcern and Provision Map to bring safeguarding, learning-plan and related student information into a single view.

Pricing

Class Charts is a paid product with custom pricing: schools are invited to contact sales, and no subscription amount is stated. The product page offers a free introductory demonstration, but no trial period is stated. The homework and reward store modules are described as free for schools; that does not establish that the rest of Class Charts is free.

Because there is no published subscription price or stated trial length, schools should request a quote and clarify what modules it covers before comparing budgets. There are no published seat limits, quotas or renewal terms to weigh.

Platforms

Class Charts is available on the web, with parent and pupil apps for iOS and Android. This gives families mobile access alongside the school-facing web product.

Who it's for

Class Charts is designed for schools and teachers, with login options for teachers, parents and students. It is a stronger fit for schools seeking a combination of behaviour, attendance, homework and family communication than for buyers looking for a narrowly focused tool with a published per-user price.

Its wellbeing, IEP support, goal progress monitoring, incident tracking and compliance reporting capabilities may also suit schools coordinating student support alongside everyday classroom management. Class Charts is subject to data protection laws including the UK GDPR, EU GDPR, Data Protection Act 2018 and Australian Privacy Act 1988.

Pros and cons

• Pros: Behaviour points, school-specific categories and whole-school reports support both classroom reinforcement and broader oversight.
• Pros: Attendance, homework, communications and wellbeing sit alongside behaviour tools, reducing the need to treat each area as a separate workflow.
• Pros: Free homework and reward store modules offer a way to use some functions without adopting the wider paid product.
• Cons: Custom pricing and no stated trial period make it harder to assess cost and test the wider product before contacting sales.
• Cons: The value of behaviour reports and data-led seating plans depends on schools recording useful information and applying their policies consistently.

Verdict

Class Charts is a sensible choice for schools that want behaviour management supported by attendance, homework, wellbeing and family communication in one system. Its breadth and free homework and reward store modules are the clearest reasons to consider it. Look elsewhere if a stated subscription price or a product trial period is essential before engaging with sales.
