About Us:

We are the innovators, educators, and altogether lovely bunch of folk behind the award-winning Learning Journey Platform, PebblePad. Our journey has seen us consistently push boundaries, build a reputation as trusted experts in the EdTech space, and help our customers blaze new educational trails by bridging the gaps other platforms can't reach. Big enough to be trusted by leading organisations across the globe, but small enough to value every team member, it's why our customer-base, just like our team, is growing year on year. If you want to be part of something incredible, and make a difference to future generations of learners, read on.
