Why no public leaderboards?

Research from Hattie and Danish school development shows public rankings can demotivate weaker pupils without helping the strong. We only show your own progress.

Do streaks create pressure?

Streaks don't break for sick days or weekends — only for missing practice on school days. Flexible streaks build lasting motivation.

Pupils see their own. Parents see their child. Teachers see their class. Leadership sees aggregate. No-one sees more than their role requires — GDPR Art. 5(1)(c).

Progress & gamification

Skill tree, mastery & badges that motivate

Every pupil has their own subject profile with XP, streaks, badges and a visual skill tree that grows with their learning — with zero teacher setup.

Contact

XP for every activity

Reading, exercises, submissions and productivity all earn XP automatically.

Daily streaks

Pupils build a streak by learning a bit every day — shown clearly in the UI.

Badges & milestones

Different badges for grit, creativity, collaboration — not just grades.

Per-subject skill tree

Visual tree with skills unlocking as mastery grows.

Mastery dashboard

Pupils (and parents) see exactly which topics still need work.

Research-based

Built on Self-Determination Theory — autonomy, competence, relatedness.
