School leaders
See participation and gaps across classes, year groups, and subgroups — so improvement conversations start with evidence.
Helping Every
Child Thrive
Five Wells is a whole-child recognition and participation platform for primary schools.
Staff record children's participation in experiences beyond the curriculum, see who is engaging and where opportunities are missing, and use evidence to plan what happens next.
How Five Wells works
Explore · Recognise · Understand · Act
A simple loop for whole-child development — from shared values to evidence-led action.
Explore
Broaden what counts
Use the Five Wells — Mindful, Creative, Physical, Social, and Charitable — as a shared language for experiences beyond the curriculum: lessons, clubs, corridors, and community life.
Recognise
Celebrate participation
Staff record recognition quickly across the Wells. Pupils see their strengths grow; families get clearer positive stories — including the Well Chronicle at home.
Understand
See who is included
Analytics show which pupils and groups are receiving those opportunities — and where participation or well balance may need attention.
Act
Know what to do next
Staff digest, equity nudges, and leader-ready evidence help teams decide what encouragement, provision, or culture change comes next.
The framework
Our Five Wells Approach
Five interconnected areas give schools a shared language for the whole child — not only in lessons, but in clubs, corridors, playtimes, and community life.
Mindful
Focus, reflection, and emotional balance.
Explore this Well →Creative
Curiosity, ideas, and expressive learning.
Explore this Well →Physical
Movement, health, and energy for learning.
Explore this Well →Social
Teamwork, communication, and belonging.
Explore this Well →Charitable
Kindness, service, and community spirit.
Explore this Well →From recognition to action
“ClassDojo shows a point. Five Wells writes the child’s character story — and parents get to read the next chapter tonight.”
Every staff recognition can become part of the child's story — and a positive conversation at home. Leaders see participation patterns; teachers get prompts when pupils need encouragement.
Teachers
Award recognition in the moment without another admin-heavy task. Reinforce values across the whole school day.
Pupils
Understand that many kinds of contribution matter — from focus and creativity to teamwork and kindness.
Families
Share positive conversations grounded in what happened at school, not just attainment headlines.
