AI and automation

Give every teacher hours back—with people still in charge.

An AI assistant for every role, built into the platform and grounded in your school's own material. It drafts, summarises and handles routine work; a named person reviews before anything matters.

Make a short quiz on photosynthesis from our approved reading—an easier version for Group B too.

Niva assistance · Draft

  1. What do plants need to make their own food?
  2. Where in the leaf does photosynthesis happen?
  3. Which gas do plants release during the day?

An assistant for every role

Not one chatbot. The right help for each job.

Each assistant knows its role's work and permissions, and drafts from your school's own material—so the help fits how your school runs.

AI for assessment

Create, practise and mark— with AI at every step.

The assessment work that takes teachers the most time, from writing a paper to marking a pile of scripts, gets a capable assistant. The teacher still confirms every mark.

  1. 01Create

    From any material to a ready paper

    Upload a PDF, a scan of an old paper, a photo of a textbook page or your notes. The assistant drafts questions linked back to the exact page.

    • Questions, answers and mark schemes
    • Rubrics for written and spoken work
    • Parallel papers so no two rows match
    • Easier, harder and accessible versions
    • A question bank your school builds over time
  2. 02Practise

    Practice that adapts to each learner

    Students practise at the right level, and every answer comes with a step-by-step explanation that cites the page it came from.

    • Adaptive practice by topic
    • An AI tutor that explains every answer
    • Ask a doubt by photo or voice
    • The teacher sets how much AI help is allowed
    • Weak areas tracked, topic by topic
  3. 03Mark

    Marking help that the teacher confirms

    Objective answers mark themselves. Written and spoken work gets a suggested score with the evidence for it—the teacher decides.

    • Handwritten papers scanned and matched
    • Essays and speaking scored against your rubric
    • Marked in line with your own graded examples
    • A whole class marked in one run, released by the teacher
    • Feedback for every learner, criterion by criterion

Fair and secure, by design

  • AI help, set by the teacher

    From no AI at all to guided hints—AI coaches, it never writes the answer for the student.

  • Results held until released

    Marks stay with the teacher until they are checked and released.

  • No camera surveillance

    Integrity signals are shown only to the teacher; nothing is decided automatically.

  • Every mark has a trail

    Who marked what, and why, is kept—so appeals and re-marks are straightforward.

  • Secure exam mode

    Timed online papers with autosave, recovery after interruptions and a submission receipt.

  • Branded report cards and certificates

    Approved results flow into report cards and certificates with your school's identity.

AI-suggested marks and questions stay drafts until a teacher approves them. No final grade is ever given by AI alone.

Hours back, every week

A quiz for three reading levels, without the evening it used to take.

A teacher reviews AI-assisted lesson and assessment suggestions before sharing differentiated work.
  1. Teacher

    Source

    A science teacher selects the photosynthesis outcome and the department's approved reading.

  2. Assistant

    Draft

    The assistant drafts a short quiz in three versions, one for each reading level.

  3. TeacherThe teacher decides

    Teacher review

    The teacher removes an ambiguous question, rewrites another and approves two versions.

  4. TeacherThe teacher decides

    Assignment

    The approved versions are set for the groups the teacher chooses.

  5. Teacher

    Insight

    Responses are grouped by likely misconception for the teacher to act on—no grade is assigned by the system.

Automation

Routine work runs itself. Important steps still ask you.

Automations watch for the things your school cares about, gather what's needed and prepare the next step—then wait for a person whenever it matters.

  1. Automatic

    Watches

    A learner's absence is still unexplained by mid-morning.

  2. Automatic

    Gathers

    Pulls the register, the guardian contact and any note already on file.

  3. Automatic

    Prepares

    Drafts the message to the guardian and creates a task for the office.

  4. A person

    Asks first

    The office approves the message before it is sent.

  5. Automatic

    Follows up

    Schedules a reminder and closes the task when the reply arrives.

On its own, it can

  • Gather information you are allowed to see
  • Prepare drafts and tasks
  • Send reminders you have approved
  • Take small steps that can be undone

It always asks first for

  • Anything sent to a family or learner
  • Any change to a record
  • Anything that cannot be undone

People stay in charge

Four places where a person always decides.

  1. Your school

    Switch each use on

    Your school decides which AI uses are allowed, for whom, and with what data.

  2. Teacher or leader

    Choose the source

    The assistant works from the material the person selects—not the open internet.

  3. Teacher or leader

    Approve the output

    Nothing reaches a learner, family or record until a named person approves it.

  4. Anyone

    Correct and report

    People can fix and flag output, and every correction improves quality checks.

Safe by design

Rules every assistant follows, in every school.

  • Your data never trains outside models

    School and student data is not used to train a provider's general AI.

  • Approved models, in your region

    Only reviewed models run, chosen per task and kept in your hosting region.

  • Only what the task needs

    An assistant sees the minimum context for its purpose, with age and sensitivity respected.

  • Every answer shows its source

    AI contributions are marked and link back to the record, policy or passage they came from.

  • School runs without it

    If AI is switched off or unavailable, every core school process still works.

  • A full record

    Who asked, what was suggested and who approved it are kept as evidence.

School Niva's AI will never

  • Give a formal grade on its own
  • Diagnose or label a child
  • Make safeguarding decisions
  • Profile children for advertising
  • Pretend to be a teacher or parent

These limits are built into the platform. No school setting can switch them on.
