Exam questions on paper in a lesson

What does this do?

In a teacher-led lesson, add an exam question from one of your assessments and print it for the class. Each pupil gets their own sheet with their name and a QR code. After the lesson, scan the sheets in and they are marked on the assessment, exactly like a paper test.

When should I use it?

Use it when a lesson ends with an exam-style question but pupils are not on devices — the answers still come back into Classfolio and the Folio.

Common mistakes

  • Adding someone else's assessment — only the teacher who wrote it can print it
  • Printing twice for the same pupils — use Print for pupils without a sheet for latecomers
