What students see
When you share a marked submission, your student lands on a clean, dedicated results page. This article gives you a look at it.
The page at a glance
A student opens the share link in their browser — no account needed — and sees:
- Their name and the assessment title
- Their overall score and percentage
- A question-by-question breakdown, with their answer, the mark you (or the AI) gave, and the feedback
- Optionally the marking guide for context
It’s clean, focused, and built so a student can read through it without confusion.
What’s visible — and what you control
You choose how much detail to show. From Settings → Customisation, under What’s visible, you can toggle whether the student-facing page includes:
- Feedback — your per-question feedback text
- Breakdown — marks awarded for each question
- Marking guide — the original mark scheme alongside each question
Defaults apply to all new share links; you can override them per link if needed.
What’s not shown
A few things students never see:
- Other students’ work or marks
- Internal confidence indicators
- The AI’s chain-of-thought reasoning
- Any teacher-only notes
In other words, the student sees the output of marking — not how Marking.ai got there.
Your branding
If you’ve set up branding (school logo and colour), the student-facing page picks it up automatically — logo in the header, your primary colour as the accent. See Branding your shared outputs.
What happens if a link expires?
The student sees a clear “This link has expired” message. If they need re-access, generate a fresh link from your side — see Sharing a marked submission with a student.
If a link has been revoked, the student sees a “This link has been revoked” message.

FAQs
Can students reply to the feedback?
Not directly on the page. If you want a discussion, share the link plus a comment thread in whatever tool you’re using (email, LMS, chat).
Does the page work on a phone?
Yes — it’s designed mobile-first. Most students will open the link on their phones.
Can a student download their feedback as a PDF?
Yes — the page includes a download option that gives them a one-page PDF summary. You can also send them a Submission report PDF directly. See Exporting a submission report PDF.
