Scammers stealing money with a dodgy service and no communication. Avoid at all costs.

This platform is an absolute scam. Parents, do NOT engage with this website as they will steal your money and not provide an appropriate service. They will not respond to any emails and this is their only way of communication. They will not unsubscribe people and help themselves to your money. I have reported for this illegal activity.

The same as other reviews with taking money out even after three emails to ask them to stop. To date I have not received a reply from my emails and phone calls to this company is an auto message to say they no longer answer phones due to teacher shortages.I will now have to cancel my debit card and report this company to my bank.

This company is a scam, do not trust them. My kids work history lost constantly. No phone contact. Ignored emails to terminate subscription. Continual monthly charges against my permission. I am going to report them to my bank and fair trading. STAY AWAY!

This company is an absolute scam with unmonitored emails and now way possible to communicate where you receive a response.Stealing money from my account when I have sent multiple emails stating that I did not authorise these transactions.No reply.I have reported the issue to my bank and appropriate authorities as this is fraud related theft. I am not even a homeschooling parent!

I find Skwirk an ideal resource for my Year 3 students. It's a great time saver in terms of lesson planning which is always of benefit. The animations, games and videos are also a great way of keeping the students engaged and caters towards the different learning styles.

I've been using Skwirk for the past year or so and have never seen a online educational resource as streamlined and effective as Skwirk. I did have speed issues on the site initially but this was fixed a lot faster than I expected after providing feedback to the Skwirk team.I've also found Skwirk to be a lot more engaging with my students who enjoy Skwirking and I really like utilizing technology in the classroom for educational purposes. This is a welcomed change compared to it being a distraction or used for other purposes.

I have used Skwirk for 2 years now and absolutely love it. It has saved me time in planning my activities because all the resources are there for you! They have games, animations, images and videos which are reliable and even come with an Aussie accent. The staff have been very helpful when I have had questions about trial periods and logins, they are very knowledgeable about the resource. The teachers at my school have caught on to the time saver resource and love it too! When we have planning days it is always open ready to be assigned to year groups and content descriptors. I have been able to use it to ensure that I differentiate for my students as I have varying ability levels within my class. Assigning different chapters for them during class and for homework has seen their academic achievement rise, my students always ask me if they can go on to the interactive games that Skwirk has during free time. Skwirk fits in to the new 21st century learning techniques that a lot of schools are implementing as well.

A very good resource. Schools often teach with quite standardized and outdated lesson plans that don't see pupils as individuals but as a mass that needs educating. We all know that each person is unique and will learn quicker if the teaching matches their individual learning preferences. Skwirk allows you to choose from a wide variety of learning materials that can be tailored to a pupils specific learning style and needs. The results being a quicker, easier and...dare I say it...enjoyable! learning experience for the pupil where a greater quantity of information is absorbed and a genuine engagement with the subject is seen. Definitely worth trying out for yourself!
