Storywizard gives children aged 6–14 the thrill of writing, illustrating and holding their very own printed book — with their name on the cover. Built for the classroom, tailored to each Key Stage, and safe by design.
See school packages →Why teachers love it
Children write with real motivation when they know it becomes a genuine book they get to keep.
Seeing their name on a cover as "the author" is a lasting confidence boost — especially for reluctant writers.
Supports composition, planning, vocabulary and creativity across the English curriculum.
No pupil accounts, no chat, no public content. Every book reviewed before print.
Tailored to your class
Storywizard adapts the writing level, story length and support to suit the age and stage of your pupils.
For our youngest authors, Storywizard keeps language simple and warm. With a teacher or adult guiding the prompts, KS1 pupils create a short, richly illustrated story built around their own characters and ideas.
KS2 is Storywizard's heartland. Pupils take the lead — choosing their title, characters and plot — and produce a longer, chaptered, illustrated story. Ideal for creative writing units, topic work, or an end-of-year keepsake.
KS3 pupils can stretch into longer, more sophisticated stories with richer plots and themes. A powerful way to re-engage older pupils with creative writing and give them a tangible, published result to be proud of.
We have a section built for them — free printable lesson plans, story planners and character sheets, curriculum links for KS1, KS2 and KS3, and how to run it as a class project.
