FOR HIGHER ED

Test the cohort, read every student.

Generate tests at the level you set, assign them to a cohort, and open any student's record.

Tests at the level and question types you set

One student's report in Carna, course by course: the latest score, the attempts and what came in late. Carna School London is a sample school — the names and scores are demo data, and nothing here is a final mark.

— IN PRACTICE

How it works in your programme.

A preparatory cohort of hundreds needs writing feedback, tests at the right level and a clear record per student — and a small teaching team cannot produce all three by hand every week.

— Academic writing

Writing feedback that keeps pace with the cohort.

Every essay arrives with an AI suggestion — a score, a CEFR band, how sure the model is and why — labelled as a suggestion. Nothing becomes a mark until an instructor decides, and the record shows when they changed it.

Reports in Carna: the essay grading queue, and Essay Writing gradings after a teacher's decision. Names, reasoning and scores are samples.
  • Each person arrives in the right class

    Matched on the exact email address

    Your school's pre-approved list holds student and teacher email addresses, each with a class. When someone on the list first signs in to Carna, including with Google, they join that class, with no code to hand out. Each entry is used once, and an unused one can be revoked.

    • Someone can be taken off the roster or concluded at the end of a term, then brought back later.
  • Know who needs help

    At most 5 students, worst first

    Every teacher's home screen lists the students to look at first, each with one reason: not started, overdue, or averaging under 60%. A name opens that student's report.

    • Each teacher chooses which cards appear on their home screen, and in what order.
  • It remembers what it wrote

    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.

— FAQ

Questions universities ask.

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.

Can it handle placement for a large intake?

Placement testing is a separate product, Carna Test (carnatest.com). Inside Carna for Schools, every module and test is levelled A1 to C2, so a cohort starts at the level you give it, and pre-approved enrolment by email puts each student in the right class on first sign-in.

Does it support IELTS and TOEFL preparation?

Carna is not tied to an exam board. What it gives a preparatory programme is tests at the level you set in nine question types, essays graded with a CEFR band an instructor confirms or changes, and a record per student, course by course.

Will it fit our curriculum and our LMS?

Send us your units and our team turns them into interactive, auto-graded lessons; nothing goes live until your team approves it. For your LMS, talk to us about what you run and we will tell you exactly what connects today.

Who marks the work?

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.

How is student data handled?

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.
