How Pivot encourages student voice

Students as partners in learning

Effective schools understand that when students and teachers have an open relationship, they can create and sustain productive and inclusive learning environments. Activating student voice helps drive student independence, collaboration and agency.  

Student feedback empowers students

Pivot provides educators with the tools to build agency in a way that empowers their students. Our surveys provide students with the opportunity to direct and take responsibility for their learning. When supported in this way, students can become independent and self-regulating learners.

Fostering student voice leads to building student agency

We believe that all learners have leadership potential. When student voices are heard, listened to and acted upon, student agency grows to a place of leadership and action within schools. 

Student voice is made easy for schools

Listening to your students is simply one element of student voice, acting upon it is what makes a difference. Pivot not only provides teachers and leaders with a method of hearing their students, but also gives them tools to act upon this feedback.
