Hero offers schools the opportunity to share and track student progress through sets of goals.
Within your site, there are Level 1-8 Curriculum Achievement Objective goals, the English Language Learning Progressions (ELLP) indicators and sets of micro goals for Levels 1-4 in Number and algebra, Reading and Writing.
Your school can choose to use any of the sets of goals offered by Hero or develop your own. If you decide to develop your own, these goals must be levelled in some way e.g. Level 1, 2 ,3, 4 or Emergent, Novice, Practitioner, Expert in order to automatically generate Best fit levels.
