Custom Educational Handwriting Font Design — English Alphabet A–Z / a–z

Type & Font Design — incorrectly specified categories?

A custom handwriting font is required for the English language. The font should be visually close to traditional American educational handwriting styles, with Zaner-Bloser used only as a stylistic reference.

The font must be an original design, not a direct copy of any existing commercial or copyrighted font.

Task:
Create a handwriting-style font that closely follows standard U.S. handwriting conventions and has a highly academic, school-style appearance.

The font should look like a clean, repeatable, educational handwriting model used for teaching children how to write in elementary school.

Character Set:
Only the English alphabet is required:

Uppercase letters: A–Z
Lowercase letters: a–z

Style Requirements:

Very close to an academic American school handwriting style
Based on standard U.S. handwriting conventions
Simple, clear, and educational letterforms
Suitable for children’s learning materials, handwriting worksheets, copybooks, and educational resources
Clean and standardized, not decorative or calligraphic
The letters should look like they are designed for teaching handwriting in primary school

Important:
The font must be original, but stylistically very close to an academic U.S. handwriting model

I can help with designing a custom educational handwriting font based on U.S. school handwriting conventions while ensuring it is completely original and suitable for commercial use. Before estimating the project, could you please clarify:
1. Which font format do you need for the final delivery (TTF, OTF, or both)?
2. Should the font include only the 52 English letters (A–Z, a–z), or also numbers and punctuation in a later stage?
3. Do you need only the font itself, or also the editable source files (FontLab, Glyphs, FontForge, etc.)?
4. Is support for handwriting worksheets (guidelines, tracing) required, or only the font?
