Measure time released without overclaiming savings.
Use a simple baseline, representative tasks and staff feedback to understand where Teachmate changes workload in your school.
Where to look
Measure recurring work consistently.
The strongest comparison uses the same type of task, a similar level of complexity and a clear review period.
Planning and resources
Track preparation time for comparable lessons or resource types.
Reports and administration
Compare drafting and editing time for recurring written tasks.
Communication
Review time spent preparing routine letters, explanations and updates.
A fair method
Record the context behind every figure.
Time released is useful capacity, not automatically a cashable budget saving.
Set a baseline
Record how long a representative task takes before adoption.
Keep assumptions visible
Note staff numbers, school weeks, task frequency and editing time.
Combine data and experience
Use timings alongside structured feedback from the staff doing the work.
Model your own assumptions.
Use the adjustable ROI calculator to estimate hours released with figures that match your school.
