The system compares each new question against all existing published questions in the database. Questions that are too similar — even with different numbers or slight rewording — are blocked immediately. The teacher is told which existing question it resembles and asked to submit something genuinely different.

The question is checked against the uploaded syllabus for the relevant subject. It must clearly address a learning objective from the official SEA or CSEC curriculum. Questions about topics outside the syllabus are returned to the teacher. Minimum alignment score: 8/10.

Five dimensions are evaluated: Clarity (is the question unambiguous?), Accuracy (is the marked answer definitively correct?), Difficulty match (does it match the stated level?), Distractor quality (do wrong answers represent real student mistakes, not random values?), and Explanation quality (does it teach something clear and useful?). All must score 8 or higher.

Published: All five scores 8+, no similarity match, curriculum aligned → question goes live, teacher earns TT$5.

Returned: Any score below 8 or off-curriculum → returned to teacher with specific written instructions on what to fix. No payment. Teacher may revise and resubmit.

Blocked: Too similar to existing question → blocked, teacher notified, no resubmission of that specific question.
