Intel Capital portfolio company Schoology has been picked up by PowerSchool, which will integrate the cloud-based curriculum management software platform with its Unified Classroom service.

Educational technology product supplier PowerSchool has agreed to acquire US-based curriculum management software provider Schoology for an undisclosed sum, enabling semiconductor and data company Intel to exit.

Founded in 2009, Schoology has developed a cloud-based software platform that lets schoolteachers plan lessons, encourage dialogue with students and conduct personalised progress reports.

PowerSchool plans to bundle the technology with its own school management software suite, Unified Classroom, which also has applications in data analytics, specialised education provision, talent development and finance.
