As the first year of the Teachmate AI Ambassador Programme comes to a close, we thought we’d take a moment to reflect on what has been an amazing year!

What started as a pilot initiative has grown into a thriving community of AI pioneers – sharing ideas, learning new skills and building their AI confidence in the classroom πŸ‘©β€πŸ«πŸ‘¨β€πŸ« Keep reading to find out how you can apply to become one of our 2025-26 AI Ambassadors…

Over the past year, our Ambassadors have explored how Teachmate can enhance everything from lesson planning to image generation tools, SEND/adaptation and more! We’ve had insightful discussions, hands-on guests workshops, and ample opportunities for our ambassadors to increase their knowledge of AI.

The goal was always to equip educators not just with tools, but with understanding – and to empower them to lead positive AI conversations in their schools πŸ€–βœ¨

We’re proud of what’s been achieved so far and we can’t wait to welcome the class of 2025-26 (more on that later πŸ‘€) As Teachmate AI Ambassador Fiona Baxter shared:

β€œThank you, this year has given me a great foundational understanding of AI in education, and a framework to shape and share learning with my students.” πŸ“š

It’s not just about what teachers have learned – it’s also about how they’ve passed that learning on. Whether it’s exploring ways to make curriculum planning more efficient or supporting personalised learning at scale. Alex Potterton-Crawford, another Teachmate AI Ambassador told us…

β€œIt’s been great to take part in these sessions and to work with you over the past few months. Even though I am changing roles next year (I’m returning to primary school teaching), I will almost certainly get my own Teachmate licence and encourage my new school to embrace it too because I feel there is a lot of value in your tools.” 🌟🏫

The enthusiasm we’ve seen from educators like Alex shows just how impactful the programme has been. And perhaps the most rewarding part? Seeing how many of our 2024-25 class want to re-apply! As Steve Butler put it…

β€œIt’s been fantastic, it really has! I’m very excited for next year.” πŸš€

To all our 2024-25 Ambassadors, thank you! You’ve helped us to shape something really special that we’re going to continue to make even better thanks to your insights and feedback.
