Class Charts vs Merit

Class Charts is classroom management software for schools, covering student behaviour, attendance, homework, communication and wellbeing. Teachers can award performance points, define behaviours to match school policy and produce whole-school reports. Recorded data and student interactions help teachers create and adjust seating plans. Attendance tools handle morning and afternoon registers, reporting and pattern identification. Teachers can set and track homework, while students and parents can view tasks and deadlines. Schools can share updates and student performance information with staff and parents, and the wellbeing module highlights concerns and offers support resources. Class Charts can connect with key MIS systems using writeback, or schools can ask about Wonde integration. Tes also describes links with MyConcern and Provision Map for safeguarding and learning-plan information. Parent and pupil apps are available for iOS and Android, alongside web access. Homework and reward store modules are described as free for schools. The product page does not state a subscription price; schools can request pricing and a free introductory demonstration.

Merit is a web-based PBIS platform from Eduverse, Ltd. for K–12 students, teachers, staff, administrators, and districts. It combines recognition, office referrals, and student jobs in one system. Staff can award behavior-specific points to individual students or whole classes, with recognition categories set by school, grade level, or PBIS tier. Students browse school or classroom stores and request items; staff approve requests before points are used. Staff can post classroom or school responsibilities for students to apply for or assign directly. Administrators review and resolve office discipline referrals in Merit. District reporting shows recognition and referral trends by building, grade, teacher, or behavior, with daily, weekly, or monthly email schedules. Staff access Merit through a modern browser on a laptop, desktop, or tablet. Merit says data is hosted in the United States, encrypted in transit with TLS and at rest with AES-256, and stored on SOC 2 Type II infrastructure with automated daily backups. Pricing is on request.
