Sign up FAQs
Signing up as an ootiboo school is quick and easy - and free.
Fill in your school's information on the sign up page, submit it, and the ootiboo team will process it within two working days and send you your log in details. If you haven't heard from us after two working days, check your spam box; if there's nothing there, email us on info@ootiboo.com and we'll sort it out.
Bear in mind the sign up is for individual schools only; if you are a trust or federation, each participating school needs to sign up individually.
If you have misplaced your log in details, just email us on info@ootiboo.com and we will send them through for you.
Ordinarily, if your school has already signed up and you are adding an extra teacher account, we would ask you to select the YES tag and choose your school from the dropdown list. Unfortunately, we are currently experiencing a bug that is preventing existing ootiboo schools creating additional logins. Please email info@ootiboo.com, and we will create your login manually.

ootiboo believes that creativity needs to be inclusive and accessible to everyone, which is why schools will never have to pay for any of the resources we share or for the projects, events and workshops we deliver.
Our work supports the curriculum, but covers aspects that sometimes get left behind; namely, the opportunity to be creative for creativity’s sake.
"We wish we could give the kids more opportunities to be creative, and give them that complete freedom, because the curriculum can sometimes take over. Today has been really lovely because it’s helped the kids really embrace their creativity”
