Innovative AI Platform to Revolutionize Teacher Workload and Boost Teacher Retention

An app developed by UK teachers is aiming to transform the workload in the sector. The AI tool will provide detailed marks and feedback that can be edited by the teachers.

London, England, United Kingdom – September 24, 2024 —

In a groundbreaking move to tackle the escalating teacher retention crisis, TeachEdge AI, the first AI-powered essay marking app, is set to transform classroom productivity and significantly reduce teacher workload. Developed by UK teachers, this cutting-edge platform seamlessly integrates with existing classroom practices to provide highly accurate essay marking and actionable insights into student performance.

A Game-Changer for Teacher Retention With teacher burnout and turnover at record highs, TeachEdge AI offers a much-needed solution to one of education’s most pressing challenges. The app, designed in line with the UK Department for Education’s (DfE) initiative to pool curriculum resources and support AI integration, directly addresses the excessive marking burden faced by teachers. By automating large portions of the essay grading process, this platform has the potential to improve job satisfaction and retention across the profession—an issue that teacher unions have consistently highlighted.

Transforming Workload and Feedback Quality Built specifically for UK exam boards, TeachEdge AI leverages fine-tuned AI models to mark essays with precision, incorporating specific Assessment Objectives (AOs) based on subject, exam board, and question type. It provides detailed, editable feedback that teachers can customize, ensuring that each student receives personalized guidance on their work.

In addition to marking individual essays, the platform offers class-level performance summaries, giving teachers valuable data to tailor their lesson plans and address common challenges faced by their students. This comprehensive approach allows teachers to focus more on teaching and less on administrative tasks.

“TeachEdge AI has the potential to fundamentally reshape how teachers manage their workload,” says Gary Roebuck, co-creator of TeachEdge AI. “By automating the most time-consuming aspects of essay marking, this app not only makes feedback more detailed and targeted but also frees up significant time for educators, which could directly contribute to easing the teacher retention crisis.”

Supporting Student Growth with Advanced Feedback

Beyond saving time, the app enriches the feedback process in ways previously impossible. The AI engine can rework sections of student essays, offering alternative phrasing and suggesting improvements based on the student’s own ideas. This encourages deeper learning and provides personalized revision plans—ultimately enhancing student performance and progress.

A Key Ally in AI-Powered Education As part of the government’s push to incorporate AI into education, TeachEdge AI aligns with the DfE’s broader vision of using technology to streamline curriculum resources. The platform’s ability to scale across various subjects—currently supporting Economics, Business, History, Psychology, Sociology, English Language, and English Literature—ensures that this innovative tool can be adopted nationwide, with more subjects slated to follow.

A Scalable Solution for All Schools TeachEdge AI is designed with flexibility in mind, offering pricing options that cater to a wide range of school budgets. Whether used by a single class or an entire department, the platform is positioned as a highly scalable solution that adapts to the needs of different schools, helping to democratize access to time-saving technology.
