Teacher-made apps for real school workflow

Hi - I'm Matt

I'm a Computer Science teacher in Wales. I started the NoRedPen project after building a behaviour-tracking app in Power Apps for a school I work in.

My aim is to build simple, school-ready apps that save staff time and keep data inside school tenants, while fitting licensing and GDPR rules schools already work within.

Behaviour + Engagement for Alternative Provision

Creating a behaviour tracker that reports to parents is the reason I started learning Power Platform in 2022. This next system is being built around real Alternative Provision needs: multi-site workflows, high-frequency logging, weekly reporting, and parent communication.

For a short concept demo, email hello@noredpen.co.uk.
