EFSim wins “New Kids on the Block” Award at the Education Showroom
EFSim, the executive functioning assessment platform, has been awarded the “New Kids on the Block” award by The Education Showroom, one of the UK’s leading education sector networks. The award, selected from a field of 26 organisations, was determined by direct feedback from school and Multi-Academy Trust (MAT) leaders and recognises the exceptional impact EFSim has achieved since its recent entry into the UK market.
“Being recognised within the ‘New Kids on the Block’ category reflects the impact we’ve made in our time within the UK and the feedback we’ve received from the school communities we work with. It’s validation that our approach to executive functioning is genuinely making a difference.”
