This document provides instructions for students to set targets for the upcoming school year in their PSHE class. Students are asked to review their performance from last year, including any comments from teachers. They identify areas they did well in and areas that need improvement. Finally, students set 4 SMART targets focused on weaknesses from last year in order to improve their performance in the coming weeks. The document ends with an activity where students create an acrostic poem to help them remember their goals.
