One learning record
Connect the goal, assessment, support, decision, and follow-up so the next meeting starts with the work already done.
WHY BOOMERANG PROGRESS
One coordinated model.
A return to every student.
A school needs a shared way to set targets, collect evidence, review progress, and act. Boomerang gives teachers, support staff, and school leaders the same process to work from.
Make the system consistent.
Each teacher should be able to find the target, the evidence, the support already tried, and the next review date. Support staff need the authorized student’s learning story. Leaders need curriculum alignment and a protected view of schoolwide patterns.
Progress connects these jobs through dated records and shared learning criteria. A classroom target can begin in the team’s scope and sequence, appear beside the work sample, inform a teaching response, and return in a report.
Shared routines leave room for subject-specific expectations, individualized goals, and educator judgment.
