AI agent for primary school teachers
Report Card Comment Builder Agent
A specific, school-compliant comment for every student, approved by the teacher.
What it does
A class of 28 means 28 comments, and by comment 15 they start sounding the same. This agent reads each student's grades, notes and work samples and drafts a specific comment, with one strength and one next step. It checks tone and consistency against your school's guidelines and flags comments that sound generic, such as works hard and is a pleasure. It rewrites flagged ones with a detail from the work. It also scans the whole set for repeated phrases so that neighboring students do not read like copies of each other. Edge case: a comment that mentions a behavior note is checked against what the school allows in comments. The teacher approves every comment.
How it works
Follow the arrows from top to bottom. The orange dashed arrow is the loop: when a check fails, the agent goes back and tries again.
