Norwich EdTech Developing Experts secures £199.6k funding

Providing over 1,000 online science and geography lessons for students aged 4 to 16, Developing Experts has raised an estimated £199.6k in its latest funding round. The Norwich-based company operates an educational software-as-a-service platform designed for primary and secondary schools, teachers, and individual learners.

The new capital brings the company to an estimated post-money valuation of £5.2m. Founded in 2015, Developing Experts addresses the need for industry-aligned education by offering curriculum-mapped resources and assessment tools. Its platform includes a careers and recruitment forum intended for young people, parents, and job seekers to explore future employment opportunities.

The company focuses on equipping the future workforce with skills and knowledge through its specialized science and geography content. Its digital library serves a broad demographic, from early primary years through to secondary school completion. The platform aims to bridge the gap between classroom learning and the evolving requirements of various industries.

Financial data for the year ended 31 August 2025 reported a headcount of 12 employees. More recent figures from the company's professional profile suggest the team has grown to 15 staff members. The business is headquartered in Norwich and specializes in curriculum design, primary science, and secondary science education, often collaborating with scientists and industry experts to develop its content.

This funding round (allotted in May 2026 and filed the same month) provides additional liquidity as the firm continues to develop its e-learning tools. The estimated valuation of £5.2m follows the company's decade of operations in the UK education technology market. Developing Experts continues to focus on its core mission of transforming how education aligns with the needs of modern employers.
