What YouHue does well
YouHue is simple and focused. Age-appropriate emotion labelling and short reflections, built around clear emotional-vocabulary pedagogy, are quick for students to pick up and quick for staff to roll out. Class-climate tracking and alerts on concerning reflections give staff an early signal without much admin, and it’s free to start.
Where schools look for something different
YouHue’s focus is also its ceiling: there’s no behaviour or rewards system, no House structure, and lighter whole-school reporting than a platform built for leadership-level insight. A school that starts with YouHue for wellbeing and later wants behaviour recognition alongside it ends up running two separate tools rather than one connected picture. Family and community-facing features – the kind that let a whole school celebrate together – aren’t part of what YouHue does.
Switching & getting started
Moving to Ten Points is handled end to end by our team, and schools often start with a single phase or year group. Because Ten Points covers both wellbeing check-ins and behaviour recognition, schools “graduating” from a check-in-only tool typically find the wellbeing side familiar immediately, with behaviour, Houses and reporting added on top.

Frequently asked questions
Is YouHue free?
YouHue offers a genuine free plan (daily check-ins and basic mood analytics), with a custom-quoted Premium tier for larger schools and districts. Ten Points publishes per-student pricing for every plan, including its top tier, from $4.99/student/year.
Does YouHue include behaviour or rewards?
No – YouHue is a focused emotion check-in and reflection tool, with no points, rewards or House system. Schools wanting both behaviour recognition and wellbeing check-ins in one place typically look at a broader platform like Ten Points.
How much does Ten Points cost?
Ten Points is priced per student, per year: Teacher from $4.99, Classroom from $6.99, and School from $9.99 per student per year (billed annually), with monthly billing also available. Every plan includes Wonde integration.
Is YouHue good for primary schools?
Yes – YouHue's age-appropriate emotion labelling and simple check-in flow suit primary and international-school settings well. Ten Points covers the same ground with wellbeing journals that adapt to key stage, alongside behaviour recognition and a House system many primary schools already run.
Can a school outgrow YouHue?
Some schools start with a lightweight check-in tool like YouHue and later want behaviour recognition, whole-school reporting or family updates alongside it – at that point, many move to a broader platform rather than adding a second tool. Ten Points is built to cover both from the start.
