What AI-assisted marking can and cannot verify

AI can organise a first-pass comparison at scale, but visual recognition and mathematical judgement can both fail. Reviewability is more important than confident wording.

Useful tasks

  • Transcribe clear working for review
  • Compare visible steps with a supplied marking route
  • Check totals and question coverage
  • Group feedback by question

Hard cases

  • Faint handwriting and crossed-out work
  • Diagrams where labels or construction evidence matter
  • Unusual but valid alternative methods
  • Responses spread across unlabelled pages
  • Questions requiring professional standardisation judgement

The correct response to uncertainty

Show the page, transcription, rationale and warning together. Do not convert uncertainty into a precise-sounding grade or accuracy claim.
