Copyright FAQs

No. Our marking logic and prompts were written in-house by Teach Edge Software Ltd using generic assessment principles. We do not copy or adapt past papers, mark schemes or level-descriptor text from AQA, Edexcel, OCR or any other board, and we do not train our models on such material.

We strongly advise against uploading or typing any question that is still under exam-board copyright (including past papers, specimen papers or secure "live" material). Uploading those texts to a third-party platform will usually fall outside the licence granted to schools and could infringe copyright. Users are solely responsible for ensuring they have the necessary rights—see clause 5 of our T&Cs.

Yes, but if the wording or structure is still recognisably taken from the original paper it may still be a "substantial part" under UK copyright law. If in doubt, rewrite more heavily or start from scratch. TeachEdge.ai's Question Generator is the safest route.

Yes. The built-in Question Generator produces original practice tasks based on curriculum topics and our own rubrics. You can use these questions inside or outside our platform without worrying about exam-board permissions.

Our rubrics focus on universal assessment skills—knowledge & understanding, application, analysis, evaluation and communication. The system identifies the question type and applies the relevant internal rubric. It never consults, references or stores any exam-board mark scheme. The feedback is indicative and diagnostic; it is not official exam-board marking.

No. Neither the underlying language models nor our proprietary prompting layers are trained on copyrighted exam-board content.
