    7 Learning goals for 7Hills

Recognised, not scored

Teachers notice the qualities as they happen.

Teachers log moments when they see these qualities demonstrated naturally in lessons and school life. Over time, students and families can see the strengths recognised across different subjects and experiences.

A lower count is never a weakness or a rating. It is only a sign of what has been noticed so far.
