All 8 subjects, planning & MoE-ready records — your whole programme.
See full plan details ↓HopFocus brings curriculum, planning, reporting and a personal tutor together so you don't have to juggle ten different tools.
Maths, Reading, Writing, Spelling, Oral Language, Social Studies, Science and Technology — the full Years 1–8 curriculum, not a handful of topics.
Warm-up, teach, we-do, you-do, wrap-up — with a personalised AI tutor and server-checked answers so your child can't just guess their way through.
Printable or emailable resources, with answers kept on a separate parent-only page so you stay in control.
Hop points them to real, free books and audio stories picked for their exact reading level, not just their year.
Attendance tracking, weekly planning, progress evidence and downloadable resources to help you organise and reflect on your homeschool journey with confidence.
A reward space that grows as they learn, earned by effort only — never bought, never a pay-to-win shortcut.
HopFocus is built for real school days — printing, handwriting, outings and all.
Plan the week your way: use our suggested plan, lock the day to it, or set every subject yourself. Add the things that happen away from a screen too — swimming, karate, library, homeschool group — and tick them off as they're done. Lessons tick themselves off the moment your child finishes them.
Every finished lesson is recorded automatically, and printable worksheets and weekly packs sit alongside them. Browse the log book by child, subject or month, so you can pull up exactly what was done and when.
Log an outing, a baking session or a science project with a photo and a note, and it becomes a photo book you flick through month by month. Tick an entry to include it, and it appears in your child's printable learning record.
HopFocus takes the guesswork out of it — so support at home feels calm and specific instead of vague and stressful.
A missed idea from two years ago can make today's work feel impossible — and it rarely shows up on a report.
Things they knew last term slip away without regular, low-pressure practice.
Evenings turn into negotiation. Nobody learns much when everyone is tired and frustrated.
An hour a week is expensive, hard to schedule, and often not enough to close a real gap.
Maths is taught differently now. Wanting to help and knowing what to do next are two different things.
Hop works out what your child actually knows, teaches the missing step, and keeps you in the loop in plain English.
Two children in the same classroom can need completely different things. HopFocus builds the pathway around the child rather than the year level on the roll.
A Year 6 who needs to go back
Fractions aren't the problem — place value is. Hop quietly revisits the earlier idea, rebuilds it properly, then returns to Year 6 work with the foundation in place.
A Year 6 who's ready for more
Already confident? Hop keeps moving, offering extension work that stretches thinking instead of repeating what they can already do.
Same year. Same classroom. Two very different next steps.
A short, friendly check-in shows what your child already knows and where the gaps sit — no test anxiety, no marks out of ten.
Hop builds a learning pathway around your child's real level in each subject, not their year level. It also weaves in what they care about — animals, Minecraft, trucks, stories, gaming or whatever they love — so new concepts are introduced through familiar contexts that matter to them.
Short lessons teach one idea at a time, with guided practice, gentle hints and encouragement at every step.
Progress is tracked, skills are revisited before they fade, and every effort earns Stars for Hop's Burrow.

Illustrative example with demo data.
Some days are focused, some days are not. HopFocus is designed for both — short sessions, clear steps and a companion who keeps things calm.
Lessons slow down when something is hard and move on when it clicks. Nobody is dragged along or held back.
One idea at a time, explained clearly, with a worked example before your child tries it alone.
Hop is patient with wrong answers, notices effort, and never sighs or rushes.
Skills are revisited at sensible intervals so learning holds instead of fading after a week.
Content is written for New Zealand classrooms and mapped to Years 1–8, with each subject set to your child's actual level rather than their age.
HopFocus is an independent New Zealand product. We are not affiliated with, or endorsed by, the Ministry of Education.
Number, algebra, geometry, measurement and statistics.

HopFocus supports your child's learning and keeps your records tidy. It doesn't take on a family's legal or educational obligations.
HopFocus is built for New Zealand children in Years 1 to 8 — roughly ages 5 to 13. Each subject is set to your child's actual level rather than their year on the school roll.
Yes. Lessons are designed around the New Zealand Curriculum for Years 1–8 and written for New Zealand children. HopFocus is an independent product and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the Ministry of Education.
It depends which plan you choose. Hop Tutor is designed to sit alongside school — extra Maths, English and Spelling support, practice and revision after school. Hop Homeschool is built as a complete homeschool learning system and can be used as the main academic programme for a homeschooling family, with planning, progress evidence and resources. Homeschool families still build a broader programme around it — arts, PE, health and real-world activities like swimming, dance, music and karate. HopFocus supports the learning; it doesn't take responsibility for a family's legal or educational obligations.
Hop starts with a short check-in to see what your child already knows, then builds a pathway from there. As your child works, lessons adjust — revisiting an earlier idea when something isn't secure, and moving ahead when it is.
Both are normal and both are handled the same way: HopFocus teaches at the level your child is actually at. A child who needs earlier concepts gets them without embarrassment, and a child who's ahead gets extension instead of repetition.
You get a clear view of what your child has worked on, what's going well, what needs more practice and what's coming next — written in plain English, not technical scores. You get a report every Sunday by email, and every report can be downloaded and saved or printed.
You get 7 days of full access. A card is required to start so learning continues uninterrupted. Cancel before day seven and you won't be charged.
Your child's learning information is private to your family account and is never sold. There are no ads and no third-party marketing inside the child experience.
See where your child can go next. Seven days free, no lock-in contracts, cancel any time.
