OpenAI has introduced a new free version of ChatGPT for teachers, as artificial intelligence continues to grow within education.
The new platform offers educators a free account through June 2027 to adapt classroom materials, streamline lesson planning, collaborate with colleagues and test AI tools at their own pace, the company said in its announcement.
Unlike a regular ChatGPT account, the education version operates under enterprise-grade privacy, security and compliance standards designed to protect student information and meet federal FERPA requirements, the announcement added.
OpenAI is already working with an initial cohort of leading school districts that collectively serve nearly 150,000 teachers and staff.
