FOR ENGLISH TEACHERS
The AI test generator for English teachers: preview, edit and approve every question it writes.
Every question previewed, edited and approved by you Not started, overdue or a low score: worst first Student view: what they see, without switching accounts
Test Generation in Carna, set up for a custom test. Carna School London is a sample school; the selections are demo data.
— IN PRACTICE
Carna writes the tests and you stay in charge: generate a listening test with a voice for each speaker, edit or swap any question, and confirm the grammar points each one tests. It remembers what it wrote, so the next test on a topic is fresh, and your home screen lists the students to look at first.
The Needs Support card on your home screen lists the students to look at first, each with one reason in plain words. Open a name to go straight to that student's report.
One voice per speaker, every turn
Choose Listening when you generate a test. Carna writes a short talk or dialogue, gives each speaker a voice of their own, and writes the questions to go with it.
Kept per teacher
Carna keeps the last 120 questions it wrote for you for 90 days, and turns away new ones that are too close to them. Generate the same topic again and the new test steers clear of the old one.
Up to 3 points per question, from the catalogue
Carna tags each generated question with the English Grammar Profile points it tests, and you confirm them.

Feature by feature
In Carna, assign a module to the class or named students with a due window and an attempt cap, then read the class report, every course ranked by its average, and open one student to see their average against the class, attempts and late work. The screens use the demo school's data.
Choose the module, the whole class or named students, the due window and the attempts. One action assigns and publishes it, and late work is refused unless you allow it.

— FAQ
Short answers, in the product's own terms. Anything else, ask us on the demo.
Where the data lives and how to ask for a DPA: our Trust page.
We don't publish a time-saved figure. What Carna takes off your desk: tests written for your review at the level you set, modules scored as students submit, essay grades that arrive as suggestions you confirm or change, and a home screen that lists who needs you first.
Assigning a module is one dialog: the module, the class or named students, the due date and the attempts. Student view shows you what a student sees without switching accounts, so you can check your own assignment before the class does.
Yes. Send us your units and our team turns them into interactive, auto-graded lessons; nothing goes live until your team approves it. Test Generation can also start from the coursebook you teach, and the coursebooks your school licenses on Smartboard open on the classroom board in one click.
You choose the level, the categories and the question types, and Carna writes the test one question at a time while you watch. You can start from scratch, from the coursebook you teach or from the MEB curriculum, and a listening test comes with its own short talk or dialogue. Nothing is saved until you have previewed, edited and approved every question.
Not the ones it wrote for you recently. Carna keeps the last 120 questions it wrote for you for 90 days and turns away new ones that are too close to them: generate the same topic again and the new test steers clear of the old one. You can also swap any single question; a swap keeps the question's type.
Modules and generated tests are scored when a student submits. An essay arrives with an AI suggestion — a score, a CEFR band and the reasoning — labelled as a suggestion until a teacher confirms or changes it, and the record shows when they did. Your teachers keep the last word.
Every account belongs to your school. An admin creates them — in bulk, by invite code or from a pre-approved list — and can take a person off the roster or conclude them at the end of a term. Your school keeps a record of every batch of accounts it issued, with no password in it, and anyone can see their own trusted devices and recent sign-ins. The legal entities that process the data, and how to ask for a DPA, are on our Trust page.
