Create a class
Name it (e.g. Year 3 Blue) and you're done. Run as many classes as you like - a tutor might have an early group and a fluent group - and rename one any time with the ✏️ next to its name.
Teachers & Classes
Run whole classes on spelling.live: create pupil logins in bulk, hand out printed login labels, assign spelling lists with due dates and notes, and see class-level progress - without setting up each child by hand.
Switch on the teacher tools
1. Sign in, open Manage and find Your role & name.
2. Choose Teacher / tutor and set the display name your pupils will
recognise (e.g. Mrs Patel).
3. From then on, signing in takes you straight to My classes - your
children's profiles stay one tap away via Back.
Set up a class in minutes
Bulk add pupils
Paste one pupil name per line (add a parent's email after a comma to invite them too). The app creates a profile and a child login for each - use your own username prefix so logins stay unique to your class.
Print login labels
After a bulk add you get ready-to-print labels - name, username, password and simple sign-in steps - to cut out and stick in planners. Pupils sign in at spelling.live → Sign in → Child tab.
Add existing pupils
Children already on your account can be added to a class from a tick-list - useful when you've been working 1-to-1 and want to move to class-level assignment and reporting.
Assign spelling lists
Open the class and choose Assign list. Tick any of your existing lists - each shows its words, and each ticked list gets its own due date and note (e.g. "focus on the endings") - or create a new list right there: type or paste the words, snap a photo of a paper list, generate one from a topic with AI, or pick a UK curriculum preset. Send to the whole class or just the pupils you tick - ideal for ability groups.
What pupils see
Each pupil's home card shows an Assigned spellings panel with the list, your note, the due date, and a Practise button that starts that exact list.
One list, one cost
Assigning a list to 30 pupils runs the word checks, audio and picture generation once for the class - it doesn't multiply your AI credit usage per child.
Track progress and run a league
Assignments
See every list you've set, who it went to, and how many of its words each pupil has mastered since it was assigned.
Class report
Class accuracy, active pupils and the words the class finds trickiest, with a sortable per-pupil table. Game plays never count towards accuracy - only real practice and dictation do.
League
Friendly competition between your own classes: correct spellings over the last 30 days, ranked. Only you see it - perfect for a bit of end-of-week motivation.
AI credits for teachers
Teacher accounts can request a raised allowance of 500 AI credits a month (standard accounts get 50). Request it from the Classes dashboard or when you set your role - the spelling.live team approves requests, and the credit meter on your dashboard always shows where you stand.
