How AI is giving Northern Ireland teachers time back
Google DeepMind
Northern Ireland's C2k program ran a six-month pilot where 100 teachers integrated Google's Gemini and Workspace tools into their classrooms. Each participating teacher reported saving an average of 10 hours per week, with the program capturing over 600 distinct use cases ranging from administrative tasks to creating inclusive lesson content. Following the pilot's success, C2k plans to expand Gemini training across more schools in Northern Ireland.
Why it matters
A six-month long pilot program with the Northern Ireland Education Authority’s C2k initiative found that integrating Gemini and other generative AI tools saved participating teachers an average of 10 hours per week.
