About

At Crick Software we believe that too many children struggle with their learning due to their literacy difficulties. We created our products to overcome those difficulties, and we made them accessible for all. With the right tools, every child can achieve their potential. Crick Software has been developing literacy support tools for students across the ability spectrum since 1993, and since then the company and its products have gone from strength to strength. Our flagship product, Clicker, is currently being used in thousands of schools worldwide, with the newest iteration, Clicker 8, boasting brand new features that make it the definitive primary writing tool. As well as Clicker, we have also developed DocsPlus, a word processor designed with secondary students in mind to help them to overcome the writing challenges expected of them as they move through their education. Clicker Communicator is our dedicated AAC app available for iPad and Chromebook. We understand that for students with AAC, communication isn't just about wants and needs, but about taking an active vocal part of the classroom, and Clicker Communicator gives children the opportunity to learn and express themselves the way they want to. We use our profits to develop new products that exploit the latest technologies to benefit all learners. We stay close to the classroom by working with educators at a variety of levels, and our products adhere to the latest educational thinking and government guidelines. We have won numerous education awards over the years, including 12 Bett Awards, 2 ERA Awards, and 1 Tech for Teachers Award. Crick Software is a member of the British Educational Suppliers Association, and a sponsor of NAACE, the professional association for advancing education through ICT. John and Ann Crick have also been honoured with the Outstanding Achievement Award at the annual BESA Education Resource Awards.
