### Samio for Schools (Educator Platform)
Name: Samio for Schools
Also known as: Samio Schools, Samio para Escuelas, Samio voor Scholen, Samio für Schulen, Samio pour les Écoles, Samio per le Scuole, Samio para Escolas
Type: Classroom management platform for educators
Category: EdTech, classroom analytics, teacher tools, primary education
URL: https://samiolearning.com/schools

Samio for Schools is a companion platform that lets educators track student progress in real time, create custom challenges, manage class groups, monitor device usage, and plan yearly curricula aligned to national educational standards. It pairs with the Samio Learning app to provide a complete educational solution for primary schools.

Samio for Schools uses a proprietary Smart Engine — powered by artificial intelligence — to generate lesson plans, challenges, yearly curricula, and interactive classroom presentations. The curriculum planner retrieves official national standards per country, grade, and subject from Samio's own database and injects them into the AI prompt, so generated year plans, week outlines, and lessons align with local educational authority requirements (not generic LLM guesses).

Headline differentiators:
1. AI curriculum planning grounded in real national standards per country and grade.
2. Deep LMS and identity integration out of the box — LTI 1.3 provider (Moodle, Canvas, Blackboard, Brightspace, Schoology, Sakai), Google Classroom sync with grade passback, SSO across Google, Microsoft / Azure AD, SAML 2.0, and generic OIDC.
3. Dutch Edu-V compliance — full implementation of the Edu-V interoperability standard with PKIoverheid M2M authentication; plugs into Dutch SIS systems (Magister, Somtoday, ParnasSys).
4. Compliance-by-design — GDPR data export and deletion, versioned consent per user, full audit logging, DPA (Data Processing Agreement) PDF generation in Dutch, reCAPTCHA-protected registration.

Schools Key Features:

Schools Equity Pricing (Purchasing-Power-Parity):
Samio applies a country-aware discount so cost isn't a barrier to learning. Three tiers indexed to World Bank country income groups (FY2025):
- tier_a (Standard) — high-income economies (US, UK, EU, Canada, Australia, Japan, Korea). Reference price.
- tier_b (Upper-middle income) — about 50% off (Mexico, Brazil, Argentina, Colombia, Poland, Romania, South Africa, China).
- tier_c (Lower-middle / Low income) — about 75% off (India, Indonesia, Philippines, Vietnam, Egypt, Morocco, Bolivia, most of sub-Saharan Africa).
The tier is resolved from the school's billing-address country at registration and locked to that subscription. Currency stays USD; coupons stack on top of the tier-resolved price. NGO partnerships, scholarships, and verified hardship reviews are handled case-by-case via the equity-pricing review form.

## 14. Update History
- 2026-05-12 — Removed remaining Product schema from Landing and Askimo pages after Search Console flagged Product-snippet eligibility (missing image, offers.hasMerchantReturnPolicy, offers.shippingDetails, aggregateRating, review) and an invalid EducationalAudience on Product.audience. Same rationale as the 2026-05-10 SoftwareApplication removal: we don't fabricate ratings or commerce fields for free apps. Descriptive surface preserved via global Organization, App Store / Play Store listings, /facts.json and /llms-full.txt.
- 2026-05-10 — Removed SoftwareApplication/EducationalApplication schemas across the site (Google Rich Results requires aggregateRating/review and we don't fabricate ratings). Shortened all page titles to ≤58 chars per SEMRush audit. Added quotable-facts section and direct-answer Q&A to llms.txt. Created facts.json (machine-readable knowledge file at /facts.json).
- 2026-04-21 — Added AI curriculum / national standards story, LMS + SSO + Edu-V integrations, compliance-by-design detail, Enterprise tier, social media profiles. Corrected Classroom plan seat counts (30 students / 1 teacher / 4 classes). Added entity disambiguation.
- 2026-03-17 — Updated Schools section with Smart Engine branding, new subjects (Science, Physics), Interactive Lesson Mode, curriculum-adapted content.
- 2026-03-15 — Added Askimo product details, target audiences, and app links.
- 2026-03-05 — Added product descriptions, Schools platform details, app store links, and ai.txt.
- 2025-11-14 — Initial comprehensive guidelines published.
