How we look after your family
A plain page, not a badge wall. Everything below is true of Next Step Learning today.
No advertising, no tracking
There is no advertising and no third-party tracking, on this website or inside the product. Fonts are self-hosted rather than pulled from a third-party CDN. This site sets no non-essential cookies, so there's nothing to consent to — which is why there's no cookie banner.
Your child's data is protected
Children's personal data is encrypted at rest, and the platform is built to align with the UK Children's Code and GDPR. You can export your own family's data at any time.
Nothing about your child is ever public
Your child's work is never made public — there are no sharing features, anywhere. There's also no comparison between children: no leaderboards, no sibling scoreboards.
No pressure, nothing to buy in a child's world
There are no streaks that punish a missed day, no countdown offers, and nothing your child can be asked to buy inside their own world.
How AI-marked feedback works
Every piece of AI-marked feedback is logged and auditable by you. Feedback always leads with what your child did well, and younger children never receive numeric grades.
You're in control
You choose which subjects your child learns, set their difficulty, and pick the marking style that suits them — per child, whenever you like.
