Create immediately usable teaching materials from a free assignment or school template. AI-School helps teachers transform loose ideas, learning objectives, or existing texts into materials that can be used in the classroom. This can be small, like a lesson starter, but also larger, such as a full lesson plan, worksheet, test, parent letter, or presentation in the school's style.
A teacher converts a chapter into a worksheet with explanations, practice questions, and a short closing reflection question.
A 50-minute lesson is shortened to 30 minutes, retaining the main learning objective.
A parent letter, report, or lesson plan is created directly in a fixed school layout with the appropriate tone.
For a new topic, a teacher prepares learning objectives, glossary, lesson starter, and exit ticket all at once.
Teachers can set up an AI lesson in advance so that students don’t start blank in a general chat but work within clear boundaries. You determine the topic, the first assignment, the model, and the instructions. During the lesson, it remains visible how students are working with AI, allowing you to quickly see who is stuck, who needs deeper understanding, and where whole-class discussion is useful.
A teacher lets students work independently through an explanation route with short control questions at each step.
Students who give an incorrect answer receive extra explanation and a new practice question at the same level.
During the lesson, the teacher sees the chat history and can more quickly assess where guidance is needed.
A temporary lesson chat is set up for a class group without students needing to choose any settings themselves.
Assistants make recurring work easier and more consistent. You can create an assistant for a subject, school task, target group, or method. This way, a teacher or staff member doesn’t have to come up with the right prompt every time. Workflow assistants go a step further: they guide someone through fixed steps, for example from topic to sources, from sources to report, or from learning goal to teaching material.
A department creates an assistant that comes up with teaching methods for each new chapter.
A language team uses a speaking assistant for role plays in English, French, German, or Spanish.
A workflow helps students step-by-step with research: exploring the topic, creating subquestions, finding sources, and summarizing.
A staff member uses a fixed assistant for parent communication to keep the tone professional and school-specific.
Use AI-School to create practice questions, quizzes, formative checks, and feedback texts faster. This helps teachers with preparation and grading, but also supports students in practicing independently. The strength lies not only in creating questions but especially in quickly varying them: simpler, harder, by learning goal, with example answers, or with reflection questions.
A teacher creates three versions of the same assignment: support, standard, and advanced.
Students create a self-quiz to prepare for a test.
For an open question, an example answer and a brief feedback suggestion are generated immediately.
After a test, students receive reflection questions to better analyze their mistakes.
AI-School can retrieve information from internet sources, educational resources, and calculation tools. This is important when a lesson or assignment is not only about language but also about current facts, subject content, sources, images, calculations, or curriculum goals. Teachers use this for lesson preparation and enrichment; students can learn to research without immediately getting lost outside the school environment.
Search for current information and include sources in the answer, for example with news, social issues, or recent developments in a subject area.
Use sources that directly connect to educational content, such as open teaching materials, encyclopedic information, and Dutch learning objectives.
Let AI calculate, analyze or execute code where relevant to the question, for example in STEM subjects, graphs, tables or datasets.
Create or find visual support and use location data when needed, for example for presentations, geography, projects or field trips.
A teacher links a lesson to a recent event and has sources collected for a class discussion.
A student researches a topic through fixed steps: searching for initial information, creating sub-questions, organizing sources, and drafting a report.
In exact sciences, a calculation, formula, or graph is checked with Wolfram Alpha or code execution.
For a lesson, a teacher searches for Wikiwijs material, SLO goals, and a suitable image as a starting point.
Much educational work doesn’t start in a blank chat, but in existing documents: a chapter, policy document, test, schedule, student text, CSV or Excel overview, or folder with files. AI-School can read, summarize, query, rewrite and convert documents into useful output. This way, information from school documents remains the starting point, while AI helps you reach a workable product faster.
An employee uploads a policy document and has a brief summary, action points, and parent-friendly explanation created.
A teacher converts a chapter into a worksheet, glossary, and test questions.
A schedule in Excel or CSV is analyzed, after which AI helps identify bottlenecks or missing information.
Using the desktop app, an employee works with local Word, PDF, and Excel files without having to copy everything manually first.
AI-School is not just a place to generate answers. You want to be able to save, improve, and retrieve good elaborations, lesson plans, feedback, sources, and school agreements. With documentation and knowledge base features, AI output becomes part of the workflow instead of a separate chat answer that gets lost later.
A teacher saves a good model elaboration so it can be reused later for a similar assignment.
A team documents fixed agreements about feedback, assessment criteria, or AI usage in the knowledge base.
A lesson plan created with AI is later adjusted, with changes remaining visible.
Sources and elaborations from research are saved as a basis for the next lesson or presentation.
Not everyone prefers working by typing. With speech and audio, AI-School becomes more accessible and useful for language education, presentations, interviews, meetings, and students who think more easily out loud. You can speak with AI, have audio transcribed, use audio or video files as sources, and convert text into listening material.
A student practices a shop conversation, job interview, or oral exam in a foreign language.
A teacher records ideas for a presentation and lets AI turn them into talking points.
A meeting or interview is transcribed and converted into a summary and action points.
A text is converted to audio so students can listen instead of just reading.
Integrations ensure that AI-School better connects with the systems schools already use. Think of calendars, email, Teams, Google Drive, SharePoint, SLO goals, or custom systems. This reduces the need for manual copying of information and allows staff to use AI within their regular work context.
Use information from Google services within the chat, for example to find files, retrieve appointments, or process email information.
Let AI work with Microsoft 365 context, such as Outlook, Teams, and SharePoint documents.
Connect educational resources or custom applications via MCP, so school processes better align with AI-School.

A team organizes and summarizes recurring information from email, calendar, or Teams more quickly.
A school connects its own systems or Zapier workflows to make information from fixed processes more accessible.
For management, ICT, and administrators, AI-School is not just a collection of AI features, but a manageable school environment. You decide who has access, which models and tools are available, how the environment looks, and where usage and costs are visible. This makes AI usable for daily work without each employee having to manage separate accounts and settings.
