Captions and Translation That Fit Into Teaching

Captions and translation work across websites, videos, board work, and live classroom discussion - the full range of how teaching actually happens.

  • No switching tools. 
  • No breaking momentum. 
  • No pulling students aside, everyone stays in the mainstream classroom.

Just instruction that reaches every student in the room.

Built for Every Role in Your School

  • Students follow and participate in every lesson.
  • Teachers activate accessible provision without changing how they teach.
  • IT teams get a centrally managed, GDPR-aligned platform. All on your existing device estate.
  • School leaders get a platform-level record of language access and SEND provision in every classroom. Evidence for Ofsted, for governors, and for EHCP annual reviews.

Legal Framework

The SEND Code of Practice 2015 and the Equality Act 2010 place a legal duty on schools to make reasonable adjustments, including for pupils with hearing impairments, auditory processing differences, and communication and language needs.

Ofsted Alignment

Ofsted's Education Inspection Framework assesses whether teaching is adaptive and whether all students can access the curriculum. Inspectors look for evidence of that in practice, not just in policy.

Vivi Live Captions makes accessible provision automatic, consistent, and evidence-based—across every teacher, every lesson, every classroom.
