KS1 homework that
actually comes back.
Assign maths, phonics, spelling and reading homework from one dashboard. AI marks worksheets from photos of handwriting. Parents see it on their phone. Completion tracks itself.
The homework problem
You set the homework. Then what?
Half the class loses the sheet before they get home. A quarter of parents aren't sure what was set. The rest do it — but you've no way of knowing until you chase it up on Monday morning.
Meanwhile, you're managing spelling lists in one place, maths worksheets from another, phonics practice from a third, and a reading log on paper. And when worksheets do come back, you're marking them by hand.
It doesn't need to be this hard.
How Spark helps
Four subjects. One dashboard. Zero chasing.
One assignment system for everything
Set maths worksheets, spelling lists, phonics practice and reading targets from a single screen. Pick the topic, pick the class or group, set the due date. Done.
Parents see it instantly
When you set homework, it appears in every linked parent’s app straight away. No photocopied sheets, no “I didn’t know there was homework” at the school gate.
AI marks maths from a photo
Parents photograph their child’s completed worksheet and AI reads the handwriting, scores every question, and records the results. You see scores on your dashboard without collecting a single sheet of paper.
Completion tracks itself
Worksheets, spelling tests, phonics sessions and reading logs — when a child finishes through the app, it’s automatically marked done. AI-marked worksheets feed straight into your class stats.
Differentiated homework in two clicks
Create colour-coded groups within your class — by ability, by table, by whatever works for you. Assign different tasks to different groups in seconds.
Analytics that actually help
Completion rates, spelling accuracy, books read, and AI-marked worksheet scores — all in one dashboard. Spot struggling students and overdue work before it becomes a pattern.
40+ achievements keep them motivated
Children earn badges and stars for completing worksheets, mastering spelling words, learning phonics sounds and reading books. Streaks, milestones and cross-subject challenges make homework something they want to do.
Reports ready when you need them
Generate PDF progress reports for individual students or the whole class. Perfect for parents’ evenings, SEN reviews, or pupil progress meetings. Export as CSV too.
New: AI-powered marking
Worksheets marked before Monday morning.
When you assign a maths worksheet, parents print it at home and their child completes it by hand — real pencil-on-paper practice. Then the parent photographs the finished work in the app.
AI reads the handwriting, marks every question, and records the score against that child in your class. You see per-question results on your dashboard without touching a single sheet of paper.

Common questions
Yes. Maths topics cover the Year 1 national curriculum plus Singapore Maths and early KS2 extensions. Phonics follows Letters & Sounds Phases 2-5. Everything is built for UK schools, not adapted from an American product.
No. Parents use Spark Learn for free to complete school-assigned homework. They only pay if they choose to upgrade for extra features at home — that's completely separate and optional.
Each student in your class gets a unique join code. Parents enter this code in their Spark Learn app and their child is linked to your class. It takes under a minute per family.
Parents print a worksheet, the child completes it by hand, and the parent takes a photo in the app. Our AI reads the handwriting, marks every question, and records the score. You see results on your dashboard — no paper to collect, no marking to do.
That's fine. You can still track which families are linked and which aren't. For unlinked families, you can print worksheets as PDF or use traditional methods alongside the app.
Absolutely. Spark Learn doesn't replace your MIS or other school systems. It handles homework specifically — but it handles it well, across four subjects in one place.
