Project:Empowering sustainable school travel: The success story of the Shift-It App
Disciplines:
• Branding
• App design & UX
• Maintenance & Support
In collaboration with Shift-It, Bate Brand has been at the forefront of developing an innovative solution aimed at monitoring the environmental impact of school travel on the Isle of Wight.
We have meticulously worked on the app branding, design, and build of the Shift-It App, crafting a tool that not only serves the needs of schools and colleges but also aligns with pressing environmental concerns. Our efforts have borne fruit, with the app now embraced by over forty Isle of Wight schools. This remarkable success has paved the way for the app’s introduction to schools on the mainland. At every step, Bate Brand has remained committed to enhancing user experience and app functionality, ensuring that the app remains a valuable asset in promoting sustainable travel. Our work underscores our dedication to supporting our clients’ missions, focusing on developing solutions that serve both educational objectives and environmental sustainability.

Each morning, as school begins, teachers can swiftly update the app. It's quick, easy, and ready for the day ahead — just like taking attendance.
Every day, form teachers can note the weather and each child's way to school. It’s a simple method to keep track of their daily journey.
With just a few taps on an iPad, head teachers can add new classes and form teachers into their dedicated school portal. It's simple and stress-free.
Making changes to how children and their parents travel to and from school is simple with the Shift-It app. The app is about adapting to what works best for the family, and the environment.

The Bate Brand team has crafted the Shift-It app with care, keeping it simple to update and maintain. This thoughtful approach helps keep costs down, making it easier for everyone.
Shift-It admins gently keep an eye on school engagement, offering a helping hand to schools that might need a little extra support. It's all about caring and connection.
To encourage schools to get involved with the Shift-It app, we’ve created friendly in-app competitions with an extensive range of prizes, like a desktop computer for the school that shines brightest.
With the Shift-It app, admins find it simple to navigate and sift through the data from schools. It's designed to be as straightforward and supportive as possible.
Through the app dashboard, teachers and Shift-It admins can uncover the layers of data, revealing the different factors that touch on each child's journey to and from school.
Thanks to Bate Brand's development team, every headteacher has the option to make their school portal feel like home. By adding their school logo and embracing their school’s colours, they create a space that’s familiar and inviting, ensuring every user feels right at home.
Created with love in Isle of Wight schools, the Shift-It app is gently reaching out to local councils across the UK. The caring hands at Bate Brand have designed it to be a supportive companion for communities everywhere.
