How to add a goal

Xap allows you to set age-appropriate goals for children and helps you meet their overall development needs. Goals are set based on the observation of educators and are a reflection of your program plan. Another important aspect to consider while setting goals are notes by team leaders, education leaders or any family communication notes.
