How is your child going at school?
Think about what you've noticed at home over the past month. In about 5 minutes you'll get one practical activity to try, a simple two-week routine, and useful questions to bring to your next chat with the teacher.
This is a conversation guide, not a formal assessment. Children develop at different rates and you don't see everything that happens at school — so treat the result as a starting point for a chat with the teacher, not a verdict.

What you noticed at home
Where these questions come from
The questions are drawn from official Australian curriculum documents and reviewed against AERO research on what good home-based observation looks like. This tool helps you notice and start conversations — it does not determine whether your child is ahead, behind, or on track. That kind of judgement belongs with the teacher.
Frequently asked questions
What is this check-in based on?
Observations are drawn from official Australian curriculum authorities — NESA (NSW), VCAA (Victoria), QCAA (Queensland), SCSA (WA) and others — and from AERO practice guidance on formative assessment, spacing and retrieval. Every displayed question links to its source. Pathways that have not yet been independently verified by a qualified educator are clearly labelled.
Does it give my child a score or grade?
No. There are no scores, percentages, traffic-light grades or "on track / behind" labels. Parent observations at home are useful context but are not a substitute for teacher assessment. The result groups your observations and suggests one practical next step.
Why does it ask for my state?
Curriculum wording, year-group labels and senior-secondary courses differ across Australian states and territories. Selecting your state means the observations you see reflect the curriculum your child is actually being taught.
Do I need to enter an email address?
No. The full result is shown without any email gate. You may choose to receive a follow-up planner by email, but that is entirely optional and separate.
What if my child's year or subject is not yet available?
Some pathways are still being reviewed against official curriculum sources. Where content is not yet verified, we say so clearly and provide teacher conversation questions you can use straight away.
