Frequently Asked Questions
Think of this as the staffroom noticeboard — but you won't get in trouble if you ignore it. From how the pilot works to what your students will see, it’s all here - minus the passive-aggressive post-its and decade-old flyers.
How long does the free pilot last?
Until 3rd January 2026. Think of it as a school term, but with fewer learning walks and more neon.
How do I sign up for the free pilot?
Apply the magic voucher code at checkout, and voilà — you’re in. No bank details, no awkward commitment, just straight access.
To get in, just hit ‘Sign In’ or 'Join' in the top right. Stick in your email and we’ll fire over a magic link — no password required. If you’re old-school and actually remember your password, you can type that in instead. Either way, you’re through the door.
On the Sign In page, click Sign in with password → Set new password. Enter your email, hit Send instructions, and we’ll send you a reset link. Open the email, click Reset Password, choose a new one, and you’ll be taken straight back to the catalogue. If you’d rather skip passwords altogether, you can always request a Passwordless Sign-In link from the login page
How do I access the catalogue?
Once you’re signed in, head to the Catalog in the top menu — that’s where you’ll find all the videos ready to watch
The content is stream-only — no downloads. But as long as you’re signed into your account, you can watch anytime, anywhere.
Do my students get access too?
Yes — but not just yet. Student logins roll out from November, once we’ve finished prodding the tech and making sure it won’t collapse under a Year 11 onslaught.
How often will you drop new content?
At least two shiny new videos a week. Sometimes more, depending on whether my twins let me sleep.
Which courses are included?
The full line-up: Tudor Twistory (Henry VII now, Henry VIII starts in November), Medicine Through Grime, and Glitched Germany. Basically, three different flavours of chaos.
What's the catch?
There must be a catch, right? Honestly, at this stage, I just need your constructive feedback. Just fortnightly questionnaires, some informal feedback, and maybe a Zoom chinwag.
Do I need to prepare anything for my students?
Nope. Just hit play. If you can find the HDMI lead and wrestle the IWB into submission, you’re 80% there.
What happens when the pilot ends?
I send you a cringy Xmas e-card, and you decide if you want to keep Socraflix on as a permanent class pet. (Note: subscriptions kick in January.)
Is this really free?
Yes — as long as you pop in the voucher code we’ve sent to your inbox. Forget to use it and, well… thank you kindly for funding my Pepsi Max addiction.
Still stuck or spotted a glitch?
I’m here to help (between nappy changes and editing videos).
Just email me:
laura@socraflix.com and I’ll get back to you.
