Although most of you know this already, GoAnimate 4 Schools is the educational version of the popular consumer platform GoAnimate.com.
GoAnimate 4 Schools has privacy, security, group management and content moderation tools built in. Each implentation is a private, secure "walled garden". The student videos cannot be found from the public internet, nor can they be shared or exported to the public internet without teacher approval. Teachers can subdivide the school's accounts into classes and/or workgroups to further limit distribution of the published videos. Lastly, teachers have pre-moderation privileges allowing them to review student videos before they are published. This ensures that inappropriate language or content does spread school-wide.
In GoAnimate 4 Schools, all accounts have "GoPlus" subscriber privileges. These include unlimited character creation, unlimited video length (currently limited to 2 min duration), extended text-to-video credits and the ability to import images.

I have lots of links from teacher blogs (and am happy to share), but would encourage you to just google "goanimate ed tech" "goanimate schools" etc. so you know you are getting an unbiased set of results.
