For Caregivers & Learners
Learning Portfolios
Students share learning through posting media, documents, images and videos, making learning stories visible for teachers and caregivers. This builds a rich, digital portfolio of feedback, reporting, and celebration that moves with them through their primary years.
For Teachers & Learners
Personalised Goal Setting and Digital Badging
Hero empowers students to take charge of their learning with the ability to set individualised goals and identify next steps, in collaboration with teachers. To recognise key milestones in the learning journey, schools can choose to award Digital Badges which display on a student's profile, for teachers, caregivers and the student themselves to celebrate.
For Leaders
Powerful Insights
Whether it be a target group of 3 students or the whole school, all groups in Hero include the powerful Insights page. Insights include analysis of demographics, content, tags, assessments, progress and attendance. Insights are designed as the starting point for making informed data-driven decisions that make a difference.
For Leaders
Targeted, Aggregated Data Analysis Tools
Hero's data analysis tools have been built to ensure that data can drive key decision making. Powerful tools provide access to whole school or targeted data, that is highly visual, online and in real time. Smart data analytic reports remove the need for manual manipulation and present information in a clear, learner-centred format.
For Administrators
List Builder with Powerful Filtering and Sorting
Generate lists on the fly or using an extensive selection of pre-made lists. Lists can be bookmarked for quick access, saving valuable administrative time. Filtering and sorting tools allow you to build the exact list that you need, while printing and export options take your lists to where you need them.
For Leaders & Teachers
Flexible Assessment and Reporting Options
Hero seamlessly integrates any combination of curricula, syllabuses, and assessment structures, to meet the varied reporting needs of schools. Schools can adapt and extend these for teachers and learners to benefit from, with data able to be analysed through our powerful Insights tool.
