PRESS RELEASE

Today, the leading education technology provider Frog has announced it will be changing its name from Frogtrade to Frog Education.

The new name, the first since the company began in 1999, will seek to better reflect Frog’s role in providing first-class technology to schools across the world, making lessons more fun and engaging for pupils and teachers.

The name change will be officially unveiled at Frog’s annual conference on 24th June in Birmingham, where visionary education leaders will speak about some of the biggest issues facing schools today.

Frog has been providing a whole range of specially tailored tools and software to meet the needs of schools for a number of years now, helping to transform teaching and learning in classrooms across the globe.

Commenting, Gareth Davies, Managing Director at Frog, said:

“For the last 15 years, Frog has been providing world-class technology to the education market under the trading name, Frogtrade. This name does not fairly reflect our dedication to the customers we service or the products and services we provide.

“Our technology is a tool which is integrated into the culture and ethos of each of our schools, improving every aspect of the learning and teaching experience.

“To better reflect this offering, we are changing our trading name to Frog Education. We will still be calling ourselves ‘Frog’, but for any instances where our trading name is required, we will be now known as Frog Education.”
