Why Choose Wayground?

Everything Your School Needs, in One Hub

Six capabilities, one login, one contract, one support team. Schools that pick Wayground stop paying for a separate AI content tool, an engagement tool, an accessibility add-on, a reporting stack, and a compliance layer.

AI-first instruction, across every subject

AI Create turns any document, video or webpage into standards-aligned assessments, flashcards and passages in seconds. The same engine that gives teachers their Sunday afternoons back also delivers the EDB's "AI for ALL subjects" goal from a single login.

Backs the "AI for ALL subjects" goal

Engagement built into everyday instruction

Live assessments, team modes, practice sets and polls, inside the same hub teachers already use for AI content creation. Genuine participation, not just hands raised for the loudest kids, and students pick up AI literacy just by being in a Wayground lesson.

Student AI literacy, not a separate programme

Inclusive learning that's built in, not bolted on

25+ accommodations: translations into 30+ languages, dyslexia fonts, reading-level adjustments, bilingual dictionaries. Set once, applied automatically for the students who need them. Support without stigma, inside the same lesson everyone else is doing.

Support without stigma, at school scale

Aligned to your curriculum, adaptable to your classroom

Standards-aligned resources across English, Maths, Science, Chinese, History and beyond, with room for teachers to remix for their local context. The same library that supports cross-curricular teaching means you're not buying separate content per subject or grade.

Cross-curricular coverage, one library

Inclusive learning that's built in, not bolted on

25+ accommodations: translations into 30+ languages, dyslexia fonts, reading-level adjustments, bilingual dictionaries. Set once, applied automatically for the students who need them. Support without stigma, inside the same lesson everyone else is doing.

Supports SDP, ASP and EDB reporting

Trusted foundation for data and student safety

GDPR, COPPA, FERPA, ISO 27001 and ESSA Level 3. The same assurances governments already trust at national scale. When your procurement team asks the data-protection questions, the answer is already in the documentation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Wayground approved for EDB AI funding?

Yes. Wayground qualifies as an eligible AI education tool under the EDB "AI for Empowering Learning and Teaching Funding Programme" (Circular No. 221/2025). It meets all 5 mandatory programme requirements: AI teaching across 3+ subjects, 6+ AI teaching examples, open class evidence, experience sharing, and student AI literacy activities. Schools can use their HK$500,000 grant to license Wayground for the full grant period through August 2028.

2026-04-15

What AI tools qualify for the HK$500,000 EDB education grant?

The EDB programme funds AI tools that enable AI-assisted teaching across multiple subjects, generate teaching resources, support student AI literacy activities, and produce evidence for compliance reporting. Wayground's AI Create feature, multi-subject coverage, student-facing AI interactions, and built-in analytics each satisfy a specific requirement. Confirm eligibility with your EDB liaison before committing grant funds to any tool.

2026-04-15

Can Wayground cover all 3 required subjects?

Yes. Wayground supports English, Maths, Science, History, Chinese, and more from a single account. A single teacher can satisfy the EDB 3-subject requirement on their own. Wayground has no restrictions on which subjects you use it for, so schools can roll it out across entire departments at once.

2026-04-15

How does Wayground help schools meet the 6-resource requirement?

AI Create turns any source material into assessments, flashcards, and reading passages. Drop in a PDF, a YouTube video, a webpage, or a teacher's own notes. A single upload typically produces several distinct resources, and most teachers clear the 6-resource bar in their first week. Every generated resource is logged in Wayground's library and exportable for your EDB report.

2026-04-15

What reports does Wayground provide for EDB compliance?

Wayground generates subject usage reports, resource library exports with timestamps, downloadable class session reports, collaboration activity logs, and student completion and engagement data. Each report type is exportable in formats you can attach directly to your EDB programme submissions.
