Explore Learning recognised in EdTech 50 and EdTech Award

We’re proud to share that Explore Learning has recently received recognition across two leading EdTech initiatives, highlighting the progress we are making in supporting children’s learning.

Explore Learning has been included in the UK’s EdTech 50 for 2026, a national ranking celebrating the most innovative organisations developing technology for education and workplace learning.

In addition, our learning platform, Compass, has been shortlisted for the EdTech Innovation Hub Innovation Awards 2026 in the category of Best Digital Learning Platform for Schools. This category recognises platforms that deliver strong learning experiences, effective use of data, and measurable impact on outcomes.

Recognising innovation and impact in education

Both recognitions reflect a wider shift across the sector.

There is increasing focus on what genuinely improves outcomes for learners, not just access to content, but how technology is used in practice to support progress, engagement and confidence.

The ETIH awards in particular highlight organisations that are delivering measurable impact in real-world learning environments, with a strong emphasis on personalisation, data and practical application.

Being included in the EdTech 50 and shortlisted for an ETIH Innovation Award reflects the difference we aim to make for every child we support.
