Why Northstar

More than mock exams — a complete learning platform.

Adaptive practice, a guided curriculum journey, and the insight to know exactly where each child needs support.

Adaptive practice

Every question is chosen for your child's level and pace — getting harder only as they're ready.

Curriculum journey

A clear path through KS2, unit by unit, aligned to the UK National Curriculum.

Progress tracking

Topic-level mastery, week over week, with zero jargon.

Weakness detection

We spot the skills holding your child back and surface them automatically.

Targeted practice

Short, focused sessions aimed exactly where they'll make the biggest difference.

Parent & teacher reports

A clear weekly summary, plus suggested focus areas — for home or the classroom.

How it works

Three small steps, every week.

01

Set up in 60 seconds

Add a year group and we calibrate the journey from there.

02

Adaptive daily practice

Short 15-minute sessions that adjust as each learner grows.

03

Get reports & next steps

See progress, spot weaknesses, and know exactly what to do next.

✦ For schools & tutors

One dashboard for the whole class.

Set your students up once and let them practise independently. Northstar marks every session, tracks each child's progress, and shows you exactly where to focus your teaching.

  • Manage many students

    Add up to 50 learners on School, or unlimited on School Max — all from one teacher account.

  • Students work independently

    Learners complete adaptive sessions on their own. Northstar does the marking for you.

  • Summaries & reports

    Get a clear weekly report on every student, ready to share with parents and colleagues.

  • See weaknesses across the class

    Spot the skills the whole class is struggling with at a glance — and act on them fast.
