Flag items that need attention and recover archived work. - ### Start from ready-made material Copy eligible curated questions into your bank to adapt, or use available certification past questions for focused exam revision. ![Instructor question bank organised by subject and topic](https://academium.com.ng/images/surepass/screens/teacher-question-bank.webp) Instructor question bank organised by subject and topic Full screen Tests & exams ## Turn the lesson into a useful check of understanding. Run a short topic test or a longer exam with deliberate settings for the work you want to assess. - ### Choose the work and the learners Select questions, sections, marks and duration. Assign to your permitted school classes or your own independent students and groups. - ### Set the rules before publishing Choose attempts, question order, schedules and feedback, then decide when learners can see their results. - ### Allow the right support Enable a calculator, four-figure tables, private jotter or reading aids only where they suit the assessment. ![Test settings in the assessment wizard: attempts, pass mark, navigation, calculator and tables](https://academium.com.ng/images/surepass/screens/teacher-test-builder.webp) Test settings in the assessment wizard: attempts, pass mark, navigation, calculator and tables Full screen Marking & progress ## Know what to reteach, and who needs the extra help.

FAQs ## Questions from teachers A few practical details before you get started. [Talk to the Academium team](https://academium.com.ng/contact-us) ### Can I teach independently of a school? Yes. Independent teachers manage their own linked students and groups, question bank, practice and available tests and exams. School-specific tools such as academic terms, labs and SMS integration belong to the school setup. ### Can I adapt questions from the library? Eligible Academium Curated questions can be copied into your bank and edited there. Certification past questions are shared library content and are not editable in the same way. ### Does every answer receive an automatic mark? Objective questions use their answer keys. Written responses that require a teacher’s judgement go through grading before the final result is ready. ### Will I see every class and report in the school? Your school role and permissions determine your access. An instructor dashboard focuses on your own assessments; the school owner has a broader school overview. ## Surepass for someone else [Back to the Surepass overview](https://academium.com.ng/surepass)
