    This study proposes an AI-powered Adaptive Learning Management System (LMS) to enhance coding education for school students. The system integrates six AI/ML models and FaceNet-based facial authentication to deliver adaptive learning pathways, real-time feedback, and personalized assessments. It begins with an initial benchmarking assessment across seven categories, after which the Exam Difficulty and Question Count Model and a fine-tuned GPT-2 generator collaboratively create customized multiple-choice questions based on each learner's capability. Learning is supported through skill prediction, dynamic difficulty monitoring, and emotional state detection to ensure both cognitive and emotional engagement. Students scoring above 60% advance directly to coding curricula, while others receive personalized scaffolding through multimodal learning-style-based modules. Teachers benefit from AI-powered analytics tools that offer continuous feedback, weak-topic detection, and pedagogical guidance to enhance teaching effectiveness. By combining authentication, adaptive assessment, emotional intelligence, and teacher support, this study presents a comprehensive framework to democratize coding education and foster resilience, motivation, and mastery among students aged 10-12.
