Run Your Entire ACE School Without the Paperwork

Zion is the ACE-native school platform. Goal tracking, PACE grading with moderation, attendance, report cards, admissions, and portals for parents and students. The daily Goal Check report that took 2 to 3 hours now takes seconds.

The Problem

Are You Trapped in the Manual Reporting Cycle?

Every ACE school administrator knows the struggle. Hours of every week disappear into compiling reports, marking registers, and chasing paper that software should handle.

Time Lost Every Week

10 to 15

hours

That is over 500 hours per year spent on manual data entry

What you could be doing instead

  • Mentoring students one-on-one
  • Strategic school improvement planning
  • Professional development and training
  • Supporting and coaching your staff

Daily Goal Check Takes Hours

Manually aggregating which students met their PACE page goals across multiple learning centres. By the time you are done, the school day is over.

Report Cards Take Days

Compiling grades, attendance, and character notes from scattered spreadsheets and paper forms. It is exhausting and error prone.

Grading Without a Paper Trail

Test scores pass through hands and notebooks with no moderation record. When a grade is questioned, there is nothing to point to.

Parents Left in the Dark

Families only hear about progress at the end of term. By then the chance to help early has already passed.

Goal Tracking

The Goal Check That Started It All

Monitors enter daily PACE goals in minutes. Progress is marked through the day. The school-wide Goal Check report generates itself. Your dashboard updates in real time as goals are marked.

  • Live student progress tracking
  • Completion rates by learning centre
  • Trend analysis over time
  • At-risk student alerts

PACE Grading With Real Moderation

Zion runs the full ACE grading workflow today. Every PACE test moves through a three-stage moderation pipeline before it touches the permanent record, and nothing gets lost along the way.

  • Three-stage moderation before any grade is final
  • Retest scheduling built into the same workflow
  • SLA alerts when a test sits in moderation too long
  • Finalized grades flow into the permanent record
