💻 Workshop Description: AI for Impact: Transforming Your Pastoral Workload
Are you spending more time planning interventions than delivering them?
Pastoral work is demanding, requiring empathy, clinical judgment, and immediate action. But the reality is, hours are lost wrestling with planning documentation, drafting resource lists, and writing reports for complex needs like Anxiety, Social Skills deficits, and Autism.
Join us for this workshop designed specifically for education staff who support vulnerable pupils. We will demystify AI and teach you how to safely use free tools (like Copilot and ChatGPT) to instantly generate plans, giving you back critical time to spend where it matters most—with your pupils.
🔑 What You Will Achieve
You will leave the session with practical, actionable strategies and templates, including the ability to generate:
-
Instant 6-Session Plans: Quickly map out structured, high-quality 1:1 or group intervention outlines for key pastoral needs.
-
Automated Rigor: Effortlessly generate professional SMART targets and clear measurement methods for every session, streamlining reporting.
-
The “Safety First” Approach: Learn exclusive Persona Prompting technique to generate useful plans without ever inputting student personal or identifying data (PII).
-
Time-Saving Summaries: Instantly transform complex intervention documents into concise, audience-appropriate summaries for parents, SLT reports, or colleague briefings.
