What is Arc Pathway?

Arc Pathway is a digital platform that enables schools, nurseries and parents to assess and track children’s development and support their learning with individualised next steps and specialist advice.

What it does (in simple terms)

Arc Pathway combines three things in one:

  • Assessment

  • Dynamic and specialist next steps

  • Progress tracking

It shows how a child is doing, where they need support, and what to do next.

How it works

1. Assess

Teachers profile each child using research-based milestones across 34 different strands of learning and development.

2. Analyse

The platform generates a detailed picture of each child’s learning and development, using arcs to illustrate this.

3. Implement

The platform provides personalised next steps with activities written by specialists, tailored to that child.

4. Track progress

Progress is illustrated on an individual child or cohort basis.

5. Engage families

Parents stay informed and involved in their child’s development journey.
