titleExtension Module - Free to use until 2020

Pastoral Points is an Extension Module that schools can use for free until January 2020.  The subscription fee for the Pastoral Points extension module from January 2020 is $149 per annum.


Pastoral Points is a simple scoring mechanism that is integrated with the submission of your pastoral notes. It allows you to to allocate point scores for some or all of your pastoral note categories as they are submitted, allowing you to benchmark behavior across your student population.

Student pastoral scores can then be used as a clear benchmarks for implementing rewards and/or restrictions or perhaps published for student viewing to create a team based, behaviour focused, competitive environment among your boarding community (eg: house points where house aggregates get rewarded).

Important facts about Pastoral Points

  • When creating your Pastoral note categories you can set default points values for each pastoral category that you create and these points will be automatically applied to the pastoral points aggregate for the period.
  • When writing a pastoral note for a student you can manually adjust or apply pastoral points prior to submitting the pastoral note.
  • You can use a colour coding scheme with your pastoral points by setting background display colours for various point ranges for aggregate scores.
  • The Pastoral Points dashboard allows you to collate and aggregate collections of students by any year, house or student group in your system.
  • Pastoral Points scoreboards can be exported for sharing or publishing with your student community.




How to configure our portal for Pastoral Points

Pastoral points are placed automatically onto the student's record when you write pastoral notes for students once they have been configured in your system.

 1.  Set your display colour scale

Pastoral points will display on the student profile with a background colour according to the colour scale thresholds that you set in the Pastoral Points section of your System Configuration.

Go to System Configuration > Pastoral Points

When setting a points threshold colour you only need to set the Maximum score for that colour.  Any score at or below that maximum will then be displayed with the colour that you set in the Pastoral Points display for a student in the Student Sidebar.
