Use ChatGPT to draft class materials and school admin

A teacher leaned on ChatGPT for teaching drafts and paperwork, then checked everything before using it.

Done with ChatGPTยท Beginner

What they did
The teacher turned ChatGPT into a support tool for planning classes, writing reflections, building slides, preparing course programs, drafting assessment letters, handling marking, and putting together student report drafts. They fed it prompts along with short notes about assessments, then went through the output themselves and edited it.
How it went
They said this cut hours from planning and reduced admin so they could spend more time teaching. It was not flawless: the teacher found that some citations sounded real but were actually invented, so careful checking was still necessary.
Tips
Ask for a first pass, not a finished document. Always verify references, marks, and any wording that will go to students or families.

Iโ€™m preparing teaching materials for [subject] at [grade/year level]. Using the curriculum details in [folder/notes], create a draft lesson plan for [topic] that runs for [duration], plus a simple slide plan, a reflection template, and a note for families about the upcoming assessment. Put each item in a separate document and pause before any step that would send, submit, publish, delete, or finalise anything, so I can approve it first.

Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
