Life Skills GO is an easy-to-use emotion and wellbeing data collection tool that measures student readiness to learn. Supported by a comprehensive library of curriculum-aligned, evidence-based resources, it's everything you need to enhance whole-school and student outcomes.
The approach empowers student voice through technology, helping schools drive better outcomes by providing evidence-based wellbeing data, from the students, for the students.
The platform provides students with a safe, structured way to express how they're really feeling, fostering trust and inclusion. This helps them develop the skills to recognise, express, and manage their emotions and reactions, improving engagement, behaviour, and resilience.
Built for the Australian K-12 sector, the innovative dashboard provides real-time wellbeing metrics, insights, and reports along with evidence-based, trauma-informed, and curriculum-aligned resources to schools. It provide educators with real-time, relevant and reliable data about student emotional wellbeing and readiness to learn, helping them make informed, data-driven decisions regarding whole school and individual student wellbeing. This capability lays the groundwork for proactive and preventative strategies in schools and classrooms.
Uniquely, Life Skills GO also allows schools to measure the effectiveness of their wellbeing programs, offering a groundbreaking tool for continuous improvement and supporting school leaders to make informed resourcing decisions about their wellbeing initiatives.
Life Skills GO brings together a team of experts: teachers, wellbeing professionals, curriculum advisors, psychologists, engineers, neuroscientists, and researchers, working hand-in-hand with the education community to build a platform that supports whole-school wellbeing for every teacher and student.
The evidence-based, trauma-informed and curriculum-aligned program is informed by neuroscientific research on the importance of emotional regulation, emotional literacy, self-regulation, mindfulness, and students feeling seen and heard.
The effectiveness of the platform is supported by positive feedback from educators and school leaders, as well as impact stories shared by educators from partner schools at https://www.lifeskillsgroup.com.au/case-studies.
