For schools

Goals students actually own.

A student goal setting website and iPhone app for schools. Students set their own goals, reflect each week and share progress with their mentor. Teachers see who needs a conversation, and leaders get a progress report each term.

From a student reflection

“I finally finished my essay plan before the weekend.”

Example Year 10 Friday reflection

One school, three views

Built for the way a term runs.

Words like Teacher, Student, Reflection and Progress report are set for schools from day one.

Students

Their goals, their words

Goals broken into weekly steps, a two-minute Friday reflection and a private journal, on a phone or a laptop.

Teachers and mentors

Who needs a conversation

Low or missing reflections rise to the top, and mentoring meetings keep their agenda and notes.

Leaders

A progress report each term

Goal setting and reflection across year groups, ready to download for the principal or the board. Taking it to your board?

SMART goals, built in

Every goal starts as a good goal.

Students learn SMART goals in class. In Lifetick they practise it every time, because adding a goal walks them through each letter as a plain question. Teachers spend less time fixing vague goals and more time talking about progress.

  1. S
    SpecificWhat is my goal?

    One clear thing, in their own words.

  2. M
    MeasurableHow will I know I have achieved it?

    A number, a finish line or a yes or no.

  3. A
    AchievableHow realistic is this goal for me?

    A stretch, without setting up to fail.

  4. R

  5. T
