How can leading international schools deliver secure assessments, accelerate teacher workflow, and provide more personalised feedback for upper-secondary learners, without compromising academic rigour or the Cambridge standard?
For BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi, one of Indonesia’s most respected institutions, the answer lies in a strategic transformation powered by HeyHi.
By integrating HeyHi’s AI-enabled assessment and personalised adaptive learning system into their AS & A Level and IGCSE programmes, BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi has strengthened its mission to nurture exemplary character, promote innovative learning, and empower students to thrive in a fast-changing world. This collaboration showcases how AI can be thoughtfully applied to elevate academic excellence while preserving teacher autonomy and pedagogical integrity.
Founded under the prestigious BINA NUSANTARA Group, BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi represents the institution’s long-standing commitment to building and serving the nation through quality education. Since 1981, BINA NUSANTARA has grown into a powerhouse of innovative learning, embracing the national ethos while preparing students for global competitiveness.
As BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi expanded its Cambridge-aligned secondary programmes (IGCSE and A Level), the school sought a digital partner capable of supporting rigorous academic demands, enhancing assessment quality, and future-proofing the learning experience for students and teachers.
Delivering high-quality Cambridge-style education requires precision, consistency, and deep subject understanding. As BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi broadened its international pathways, several challenges emerged, each significant in the context of modern K–12 education.
First, teachers needed a faster way to digitise worksheets and past papers. Many AS/A Level and IGCSE documents contain complex formatting, mathematical notation, diagrams, tables, and multi-part structured questions. Manual conversion into digital assessments was time-consuming and often interrupted by formatting loss or inconsistent question structures.
Second, the school needed a reliable proctoring solution to support computer-based assessments in classroom settings. With students using their personal laptops, exam integrity and fairness became essential considerations. Any solution had to reflect the standards expected of Cambridge-style evaluation.
Third, as the school emphasised deeper learning and written reasoning, teachers needed better support in marking open-ended answers. Traditional marking processes, especially for long responses, scientific explanations, and extended writing, were labour-intensive and increased turnaround time. Maintaining consistency in scoring across classes and ensuring quality personalised feedback became increasingly challenging.
Lastly, as the school expanded its offerings for non-exam subjects, teachers required a unified space to host learning materials, videos, and post-lesson activities, enabling more self-directed learning outside the classroom, an essential component of any modern personalised adaptive learning system.
To address these needs, BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi sought an end-to-end digital assessment and personalised learning platform robust enough for high-stakes academic programmes, yet flexible and intuitive for daily classroom use.
Recognising HeyHi’s strengths in AI-driven assessment and its personalised adaptive learning system, BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi adopted a unified suite of tools designed to streamline assessment creation, strengthen academic rigour, and support richer learning experiences.
The transformation begins with HeyHi’s AI-powered digitisation system, which quickly became a vital part of BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi’s assessment workflow. Teachers simply upload PDFs, images, or Word documents, and the platform automatically converts them into structured digital assessments with accurate detection of multi-part questions, diagrams, tables, mathematical notation, and open-ended responses. Each question is auto-tagged to syllabus topics, enabling topic-level analytics that reveal mastery gaps and guide targeted revision. This intelligent digitisation process dramatically reduces manual workload and ensures consistent, high-quality preparation of IGCSE and A Level assessment materials.
To uphold secure and fair assessment conditions, BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi deployed HeyHi’s Proctoring Feature. When students take tests on their personal laptops, the system locks the assessment into full-screen mode, detects tab-switching or attempts to open other applications, and records all irregularities. Teachers can view each student’s progress in real time, see typed answers as they appear, and respond instantly to digital hand-raises. This school-friendly proctoring experience ensures exam integrity while preserving direct teacher–student interaction, an essential component of Cambridge-style evaluation.
Strengthening academic rigour further, HeyHi’s AI Marking and adaptive feedback engine enhances both efficiency and consistency. For open-ended questions, teachers can guide the AI to mark according to their own marking scheme—either by using the built-in Cambridge-aligned rubrics or by creating and customising their own rubrics for different subjects and assessment types. The AI evaluates multiple valid answer variations, applies the selected rubric, and awards partial marks appropriately. Students receive adaptive, personalised feedback that clearly outlines what they did well, what was missing, and how to improve their reasoning. For composition tasks, HeyHi performs an initial language check before delivering rubric-based scoring, with teachers reviewing and approving all AI-generated marks. This hybrid model preserves teacher authority while reducing turnaround time significantly.
Beyond assessments, HeyHi’s Academy (Lesson Module) provides a structured space for self-directed learning. Teachers can upload videos, notes, worksheets, and micro-tasks, creating guided modules that students can revisit anytime. When combined with HeyHi’s personalised adaptive learning system, each learner progresses through content at an appropriate pace, reinforcing mastery through repeated and targeted practice. Meanwhile, teachers gain richer visibility into student engagement through detailed usage logs and performance tracking.

The integration of HeyHi into BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi’s digital learning ecosystem has created measurable improvements across teaching, assessment, and student learning. Students now receive faster, clearer, and more personalised feedback, helping them understand not just what they got wrong but why, and how they can improve. This level of personalised insight builds confidence and encourages independent study, especially for IGCSE and A Level subjects that require strong reasoning and writing skills.
Teachers benefit from significantly reduced administrative workload. Tasks that previously consumed hours, such as digitising exam papers, marking long responses, or managing student progress, are now automated or streamlined through AI-driven assessment and adaptive learning tools. This allows teachers to focus more on meaningful instruction, remediation, and enrichment.
The partnership aligns strongly with the school’s Vision 2035 by leveraging technology that enhances efficiency, deepens engagement, and supports sustainable digital transformation. Through HeyHi, the school is better positioned to deliver rigorous Cambridge-style learning while nurturing independent, analytical, and confident achievers.
The collaboration between BINUS SCHOOL Bekasi and HeyHi marks a significant milestone in the evolution of AI-enhanced learning within Indonesia’s international school landscape. By embracing adaptive tools, secure digital assessment, and data-driven insights, the school is preparing students for a future where independence, mastery, and analytical thinking matter more than ever.
