Using ChatGPT to Support School Leaders

This dynamic, full-day, face-to-face workshop is designed specifically for primary school leaders - principals, deputy principals, APs - who want to explore the practical use of ChatGPT to support their day-to-day leadership and management tasks.
With practical opportunities throughout the day, participants will learn how to harness the power of AI to prepare key initiatives for the year ahead across three major focus areas:
1. Primary Curriculum Framework & Planning Support
- Get to grips with the Primary Curriculum Framework, with a focus on:
- Short-term planning with a focus on the New Maths Curriculum and related Oide and NCCA resources
- Creating new timetables aligned with updated time allocations.
2. Policy Development & Wellbeing Initiatives.
- Create a pupil-friendly version of your existing Bí Cineálta Policy, both in written and visual formats.
- Develop a Wellbeing Walkway for your school in line with the new Department of Education & Youth inspection requirements.
3. AI and day-to-day administrative tasks including…
- Write and translate school communications
- Graph and analyse school data to support School Self Evaluation

No prior experience with AI is necessary – this course is practical, accessible, and focused on helping you save time, enhance planning, and support whole-school development through the smart use of ChatGPT. Please bring charged laptops and your Cineáltas Policy (MS version) on the day.
