Crick Software was established in 1993 by teachers John and Ann Crick, who could see the exciting potential for technology in the teaching of literacy. Many of our staff are qualified and experienced teachers, including all our content developers, education sales consultants, and trainers.
Our software is used in over 90% of UK primary schools and on over half a million computers worldwide. Schools and Local Authorities are our main customers, and our software has also been rolled out to all schools in Northern Ireland and Scotland. In addition, we have a rapidly growing number of home users.
We have won numerous awards that recognise the exemplary nature of our software. We are one of very few companies to have won 10 BETT awards, known as the 'Oscars' of the UK educational software industry. Our latest was the BETT award for special needs software in 2007.
Universal Design for Learning is fundamental to everything we do. As we develop our software, we think carefully about learners of all abilities, and we strongly believe in the principles of personalised learning. Our software is used by pupils of all abilities, including struggling writers, children learning English and learners with disabilities.
We stay close to the classroom by working with educators at a variety of levels across the UK and abroad, and our products adhere to the latest educational thinking and government guidelines. We also supply free online resources to help teachers to use our software across all curriculum areas.
Our main office is in Northampton, England, where our highly motivated and professional team works from our hi-tech building in Moulton Park. Further afield, we founded Crick Software Inc. in 2001 just outside Seattle, Washington, from where we are seeing a rapid take-up of our products in the US and Canada.
We work closely with our partners in Australia and New Zealand, we have resellers in 19 countries worldwide, and our software has been translated into four other languages. Our profits are used to develop new products that exploit the latest technologies to benefit all learners.
Crick Software is a member of the British Educational Suppliers Association, and a sponsor of NAACE, the professional association for advancing education through ICT.
