Why teachers choose SmartMark

Marking OCR exam papers, classwork, coursework and homework — alongside every other government-approved exam board.

Huge time savings

A whole class set of OCR papers comes back marked with rich feedback while you get on with teaching — or take the weekend off.

Feedback that feels personal

Never cold or generic: every pupil gets warm, specific feedback quoting their own work, with clear next steps — in a fraction of the time.

Scan or upload

Capture OCR papers with your phone camera or upload PDFs and JPGs — a folder is created for each pupil automatically.

Security and Accuracy

Calibrated to national subject tolerances ensuring marking accuracy and consistency. You maintain full control over marks while end-to-end encryption ensures your student data remains strictly private and never used for model training.

Share with pupils

Send each pupil a one-page marked report — their mark, areas of success and areas for improvement — in one tap.

Whole-class insights

Beyond the marks: an OCR-aligned misconception report showing which questions tripped the class up, the evidence behind it, and concrete next steps for your teaching.
