A Melbourne software program for organising primary school classes is being used by American schools to curb the spread of COVID-19 among their students.

When the teachers at St Andrew’s Primary return to school next month, their first task upon welcoming back the students will be assessing if they have been set back socially and emotionally in their time away.

Insights into each child – if they have behavioural issues, a disability, are a fast or slow learner, who their friends are – are used to bundle together a balanced group of kids. To do that, the school will use Class Solver, a Melbourne-based software program that is being used by American schools trying to get kids back into the classroom while limiting the spread of coronavirus.

This program sounds like a rip off of Class Creator. CC started in 2014 has made millions of student placements. Used in the US for years, including this year during the pandemic. This smacks of a company trying to make money off someone else's idea and using a global pandemic.

We need kids to get it.
