THE DEMO IN 5 PARTS

What will the demo cover?

Each part follows the same path your students take in StoryMaker, so you see the real platform, not slides.

01

The prompt

See how each session opens with a fresh exam-style prompt, ready for students in Years 3 to 10.

You see: a prompt set in seconds


  • You judge: whether the prompts suit your year levels.
02

Characters

Watch a character built from guided questions: what they want, what they fear and what stands in their way.

You see: a name become a person


  • You judge: how your students would answer these questions.
03

Story mountain

See five stages planned before writing starts, so the ending exists before the timer runs.

You see: a full plan in minutes


  • You judge: whether this matches how you teach structure.
04

Timed write

Watch the countdown and live word count that mirror selective-school exam conditions.

You see: exam conditions, practised early


  • You judge: which time limits fit your cohort.
05

Set-up and pricing

Get pricing for your school or centre, and see how onboarding works for your teachers or tutors.

You see: the costs for your students


  • You decide: whether StoryMaker fits your students. No pressure either way.
A WRITING TASK, TWO WAYS

Your students still write every word. They just never start from a blank page.

Mina, Year 6 student · 30-minute narrative task

“My prompt is The door at the end of the platform. I have 30 minutes and I don't know where to start.”

  • Starting without a plan

Ten minutes go on staring at the page, the story starts in a rush, and the ending gets cut short when time runs out.

  • Starting with StoryMaker

The character and story mountain are planned first. The student adds every sentence in their own voice, with time left for the ending.

WHO THE DEMO SUITS

For schools, tutors and selective-prep families

You teach Years 3 to 10

You want a shared planning routine every student can use, in class or at home.

You run a tutoring centre

You want students practising between sessions, so class time goes on feedback instead of setup.

You want writers, not memorised scripts

You want students writing their own stories under time pressure, not repeating model answers.

StoryMaker gives students the structure. What they write, and how you teach it, stays yours.
