Changing a Student’s Year Group or Age

At PrimaryLeap, we understand that as children grow, their educational needs change. It is important to keep their learning profile updated to match their current age or year group to ensure they are receiving content that is appropriate for their level of development. Here's how you can update a student’s year group or age in your account.


Accessing the Student’s Profile

  • Log Into Your Account:

  • Start by signing into your PrimaryLeap parent account. Enter your username and password on the login page.

  • Navigate to 'My Students':

  • Once logged in, access the 'My Students' section from your dashboard. This section contains a list of all students associated with your account.


Updating Year Group or Age

  • Select the Student:

    • Find the student whose year group or age you need to update. Click on their profile to bring up their individual details.

  • Edit Year Group:

    • Within the student’s profile, locate the 'Year Group' dropdown menu. This menu displays the current grade or year group of the student.

    • Click on the dropdown menu and select the correct year group or age that matches the student’s current educational level.

  • Save Changes:

    • After selecting the new year group, be sure to save your changes. There is typically a 'Save' or 'Update' button near the bottom of the page or form. Click this button to ensure all modifications are applied to the student’s profile.


Reasons to Update Year Group or Age

  • Educational Relevance: As students grow, the complexity and depth of the content they learn in school increases. Updating their year group ensures they receive resources that are challenging enough to promote learning but not so difficult as to discourage them.

  • Tailored Content: Many educational platforms, including PrimaryLeap, tailor content based on the student’s year group. Accurate year group information helps the system deliver the most appropriate and effective educational materials.

  • Progress Tracking: Accurately tracking educational progress is easier when the student’s year group is up to date. This alignment helps in assessing their progress against typical benchmarks for their age group.


Keeping your child’s year group or age updated in your PrimaryLeap account is crucial for ensuring they receive the most appropriate educational content. This simple update can be done quickly and ensures that the learning material continues to meet their developmental needs as they grow.
