For UK Families — Curriculum, VIPERS & SATs
Primary Story works for any English-speaking family — but we've also built specifically for the UK system. Below is how it lines up with the National Curriculum, VIPERS, attainment levels, and SATs preparation.
The ONLY Reading Platform Built for the UK National Curriculum
While other reading apps are built for America, Primary Story is designed specifically for UK schools, UK teachers, and UK families. Here's what makes us different:
National Curriculum Attainment Levels
Track your child's progress against UK National Curriculum standards. See if they're Working Towards, at Expected, or at Greater Depth—just like their teacher assessments.
Built-in SATs Practice Mode
The ONLY reading app with SATs practice for Year 2 and Year 6. Scaled scores matching real tests, timed conditions, and VIPERS-aligned questions to build exam confidence.
Reading Age Calculator
See your child's reading age compared to their actual age. Used by UK primary schools to track development and understand if they're reading above, at, or below age level.
VIPERS Framework Tracking
Track progress across all 6 reading comprehension domains used in every UK primary school: Vocabulary, Inference, Prediction, Explain, Retrieve, and Summarise.
Dyslexia-Friendly Mode
Built-in dyslexia support with OpenDyslexic font, customizable spacing, tinted backgrounds, and adjustable text size. Makes reading accessible for ALL learners.
