Primary-school fitness, deployed everywhere without an installer.
PowrKidz set out to do something about the gap between what schools want to deliver on physical fitness and what they can actually run on the ground. The market exists. The barriers are practical, busy teachers, mixed devices, no IT budget for installs.
They needed a platform that teachers could pick up and use in a session, that worked across whatever device the school had to hand, and that could roll out across schools quickly. Engaging for the students, evidence-based for the trust, and trivial to deploy.

A web-based fitness platform on OutSystems.
App-like, no install. Native-feeling experience over the web, works on whatever device the school has, no IT team needed.
Teacher-led sessions. Structured fitness classes designed by specialists, runnable by any teacher with no specialist training.
Engagement & rewards. Students see progress and feedback in real time, the bit that makes the difference between a class kids do and a class kids enjoy.
Live reporting. Performance dashboards for teachers, trust-level reporting for the people who fund the programme.
Home workout pivot. When COVID-19 closed classrooms, we pivoted mid-project to support remote workout assignments, built in days, kept the programme alive.
One developer, end to end. Delivered by a single Doddle developer on OutSystems, proof that low-code can sustain a real product in the right hands.
“It helps teachers deliver really high-quality lessons in a really simple and effective way.”
20 schools, 5,000 students, 6 months.
Within six months of launch, PowrKidz was live in 20 schools, supporting 5,000 students and 700 teachers. Schools reported a measurable lift in engagement, and the trust gained personalised development data they'd never had before.
