Practical resources for your classroom

School packs & lesson downloads.

Keep these practical guides to hand for staff planning and classroom discussion.

The whole-school and KS1 packs were updated in November 2026. The remaining downloads retain their original editions. Adapt examples to your pupils and current school policies. References to curriculum or inspection frameworks are planning context, not an assurance of inspection outcomes.

CLASSROOM EXAMPLE / CREATIVE WRITING

From a shared story to their own writing.

Use generated text as a starting point for explicit teaching, then give pupils ownership of the writing.

1. Plan together. Agree the setting, character, problem and possible ending. Record pupils’ ideas before using the app.
2. Read and notice. Review the story, read a short passage aloud and identify useful description or vocabulary.
3. Model one improvement. Change a sentence together. Explain why a more precise word or clearer detail helps the reader.
4. Write independently. Pupils describe the setting, continue the story or write a different ending. Offer sentence starters where needed.
5. Share and edit. Ask pupils to read a sentence, explain a choice and make one purposeful improvement.

Look for: pupils’ own ideas, appropriate vocabulary, clear sentences and an explanation of an edit. Use the Year 2 pack for a 40–45 minute version.

Choose the right place in your school day.

• Guided reading & interventions: use interest-based stories for supported reading, vocabulary and discussion.
• English & cross-curricular topics: connect a narrative to science, history or geography, checking factual details before teaching.
• Independent practice & homework: use school-managed pupil accounts for reading at home, with a clear family routine and teacher follow-up. See the home-reading guide →
• Review & follow-up: combine reading activity, comprehension and recordings with teacher observations and pupil work.

HOME READING / SCHOOL-MANAGED ACCESS

Connect reading at home with learning at school.

Use school pupil accounts to make personalised reading part of a regular home routine. Start with a small group or one class, then review what works for pupils, families and staff.

A simple starting routine: choose a few short reading sessions each week, suited to the pupil. Keep it manageable and enjoyable, alongside books and your school’s existing reading approach.

Recording at home: follow your school’s arrangements, choose a quiet place and avoid capturing other people’s conversations. Teachers review submitted recordings through the relevant school tools.

From setup to useful follow-up.

Start small and learn what works.

1. Arrange a demonstration and identify a named staff lead.
2. Agree the group, sessions, access arrangements, support and any trial costs.
3. Prepare school-managed accounts and check the devices you plan to use.
4. Collect teacher observations, pupil responses and writing samples, then review whether to extend use.
