OpenAI drops ChatGPT for teachers—an AI just for educators
OpenAI has rolled out ChatGPT for Teachers, a new AI tool made specifically with teachers in mind.
It's free to use until 2027 and puts a big focus on privacy, so lesson plans and student info stay protected.
Unlike the usual GPT-5.1 chatbot, this version is tailored to help teachers, with a focus on minimizing misinformation.
What makes it different?
Teachers get unlimited access to GPT-5.1, plus handy integrations with Canva, Google Drive, and Microsoft 365—all in one place.
The platform offers ready-made lesson plans and teaching tools while meeting FERPA-level privacy standards.
Regular ChatGPT content won't show up here, so it's built just for classrooms.
With competitors like Google's Gemini 3 also entering the scene, it looks like AI is getting serious about supporting education.
