What Tutor Access includes
- Manage phonics records for your pupils
- Work against each pupil's school programme
- Record sessions and concise notes
- Surface sounds repeatedly marked as difficult across recorded sessions
- See sounds marked for practice but not yet recorded in a session
- Link a parent so they can see the progress you record
- Export a pupil's session history as a PDF
- Download an individual session as a PDF
- Create a Tutor Progress Record
- Export a phase summary as a PDF or CSV
Exports are files you create and download. Bridging Phonics does not send them anywhere — you decide whether to share them.
Keep a useful record
Record the sounds practised and leave a clear note, so the next session starts from what happened rather than from memory. Export an individual session as a PDF when you need to show it.

Spot what keeps coming back
Sounds repeatedly marked tricky surface across recorded sessions, so a pattern you noticed but did not write down is not the only record of it.

Your judgement stays yours
Bridging Phonics records the status you choose. It does not infer an assessment from a missing answer, a practice streak or the absence of a difficulty flag, and it does not store a software-generated judgement under your name.
That keeps the record clear about who observed what: the app organises the evidence; the professional remains responsible for the assessment.
Alongside the school programme
Bridging Phonics supports continuity with the programme a pupil meets at school. It does not introduce itself as another complete programme and does not claim DfE validation.
