How does the wording change by itself?
Behind the scenes, each comment is stored once in an internal format, with the choices marked in it. You never see or type this — it's what the software works with. Report Complete fills in the right name, pronoun and verb for whichever child you're writing about — so you write a comment once and it reads correctly for all thirty. You never type the brackets yourself: you write the sentence as you always would, and they're added as you go.
There's a second reason for storing comments this way. Because the marked-up comment contains no child's name and no pronoun, it identifies nobody — so when AI helps draft a comment, nothing that could identify a pupil ever leaves our servers. The name is filled in afterwards, here, once the words come back.
Or write a whole class of these in an evening
Copying comments one at a time is the slow way. Report Complete lets you write a section once for a group of children, check how it reads for each of them, and drop it into every report — with the names and pronouns already right.
