Success Criteria Builder

Turn a learning objective into clear, tiered "I can..." success criteria, ready to display or stick in books.

How to use

Type what pupils need to be able to do, choose a Key Stage and a tiering style, then press "Generate success criteria". Every statement is editable — click on any line and type to change the wording, delete ones that don't fit with the ✕ button, or add your own with "+ Add statement".

  • Key Stage changes how simple or sophisticated the wording is — Key Stage 1/2 statements are short and concrete; Key Stage 4/5 statements use more formal, exam-style language.
  • Press "Generate again" as many times as you like for fresh wording.
  • Use "Copy to clipboard" to paste the criteria into planning, slides or a worksheet.
  • Use "Print" for a clean, large-print version ready to project or stick in books.
