The useful details before your child starts practising or your school joins Spellito.
Is Spellito free?
Yes. Children can practise for free without an account. Parent accounts are free too, with no adverts or in-app purchases. Schools can join the launch pilot at no charge.
Which year groups can use Spellito?
Spellito covers Reception through Year 6. It chooses age-appropriate English primary spelling content for the year selected on the device.
Does Spellito include SATs spelling practice?
Yes. Year 2 and Year 6 children can practise released KS1 and KS2 spelling-paper words from 2016 to 2025 where a paper is available, alongside mixed year-group practice.
Do I need to create an account?
No. A child can pick a year and practise immediately without an account. A parent account is optional and adds separate child profiles, spelling buddies, cross-device progress and school connections.
What information does Spellito collect about children?
Guest practice stays on the device. Spellito does not ask for a child email, surname, birthday, home address, photo or voice recording, and it has no adverts or gameplay tracking.
What can teachers do in Spellito?
A teacher can create an exact class, share a private family invitation, send word-and-sentence sets to the class or an individual pupil, and review confirmed pupils’ progress and class ranking. A pupil appears only after a parent requests the link and a teacher confirms it.
Privacy by design
Free to practise. Private by default.
Guest practice stays on the device. Spellito does not ask for a child email, surname, birthday, photo or address. There are no adverts, and practice activity is never used for marketing.
