Prince Alfred College is an all-boys independent school in South Australia, with approximately 600 students in its secondary division. Nick Ladanza, Head of the English department, first came across Exam.net 2024 when searching for a secure online assessment platform to address the growing concerns around plagiarism and AI-generated content — helping to ensure the authenticity of student work.
Nick had long felt the school’s exam process could be vastly improved. Managing hundreds of handwritten papers was not only inefficient—it felt outdated. There was also a growing concern about academic integrity, particularly with the increased accessibility of AI tools, like ChatGPT. “We needed a better way to ensure the work we were assessing was genuinely the students’ own,” Nick says.
“I’m strongly against the use of ChatGPT and AI models in the classroom—I wanted to take action to counter that.”
