Webinar: Knowing More, Remembering More: Automating KS2 Assessment with Gemini Gems & Google Apps Script

Presented by Computeam, Google for Education Professional Development Partner and our special guest, Megan Davies from West Didsbury CofE Primary School (Thrive CE Academy Trust).

Assessing pupil progress in Key Stage 2 shouldn't mean spending hours manually building quizzes, marking papers, or inputting data. The real value of assessment lies in turning insights into swift action, not in gathering the information. To ensure pupils know more and remember more across core and foundation subjects like History, Geography, and Science, teachers need rapid, workload-neutral tools that pinpoint misconceptions instantly.  

Join us for this insightful 30-minute webinar where our special guest Megan Davies will explain how Computeam helped them build an automated assessment system using Gemini Gems and Google Apps Script, and share their key learnings from the process. We will discuss how to automate the generation of KS2 diagnostic quizzes, streamline Google Form creation, and execute effective "Systems Checks" and "Course Corrections" directly within Google Classroom.

What You Will Learn

• Custom Gemini Gems for Assessment: How to build custom Gemini Gems tailored to generate Key Stage 2 retrieval quizzes, mark schemes, and rubrics aligned with your curriculum.  
• Automated Workflows with Google Apps Script: How to use Google Apps Script to instantly turn AI-generated assessment content into live Google Forms and Sheets.  
• Workload-Neutral 'Systems Checks': Techniques for running rapid diagnostic checks that automate marking and identify cohort-wide misconceptions in real time.  
• Data-Driven 'Course Corrections': How to use assessment results in Google Classroom to quickly assign targeted booster activities and micro-interventions to specific groups of pupils.  
• Embedding Long-Term Retention: How digital anchors and consistent assessment structures help evidence pupil progress across History, Geography, and Science.  

This half-termly webinar is designed for school and MAT leaders who want to make confident decisions about cloud services and ensure they meet DfE standards.
