Smart workflows help school administrators fly through all administrative and financial tasks with ease.
Hero fosters student agency and growth, giving students tools to celebrate and share learning, recognise what they have mastered, and know what to do next.
Students can set goals and map out learning in collaboration with teachers, to align with the curriculum, your school's pedagogical vision and personalised learning plans.
Students can share learning through posting rich media that is visible for teachers and families. This builds a digital portfolio that moves with them through their primary years.
Digital badges display on a student's profile, for teachers, caregivers and the student themselves to celebrate key milestones in their learning journey.
Created by a primary school principal, Hero’s powerful analytics support school leaders to easily understand impact and engagement, school-wide.
No more double-handling or data manipulation - easily access authentic data to guide whole school decisions and inform strategic planning.
Analyse and monitor groups, cohorts, classes or the whole school with powerful, user-friendly insights to capture progress over time.
Efficiently identify priority students, track interventions, set academic targets and moderate grades for school-wide consistency.
Creating data is part of planning and teaching, restoring the balance for busy teachers, to focus on individual students and their progress.
