Correos Corp. Launches TeacherMatic, a Generative AI Tool Specialising in Education

 

More than 150 generators help organisations improve the efficiency and productivity of educational operations

 

Japan, August 2025 – Correos Corp., headquartered in Nakano-ku, Tokyo and led by company president Taro Momose, is a provider of IT solutions for corporate customers. From July 25, 2025, Correos began selling TeacherMatic, an AI toolkit designed for educators provided by Avallain AG, headquartered in St. Gallen, Switzerland and led by its co-founders Ursula Suter and Ignatz Heinz. TeacherMatic is a generative AI tool with more than 150 generators suitable for a wide range of educational scenarios. As a sales partner of TeacherMatic in Japan, Correos will support educational institutions and companies in improving the efficiency and productivity of their educational operations.

 

Overview and Features of TeacherMatic 

 

Generative AI developed for the education sector streamlines operations, allowing more time to be spent on teaching and ensuring well-being

TeacherMatic is a generative AI toolset developed specifically for education, with over 150 generators to support not only the creation of lesson plans, preparation and evaluation criteria, but also a wide range of educational scenarios and school affairs. Highly accurate teaching resources can be safely obtained and utilised without having to write complex prompts from scratch.

Designed with the input of educators, TeacherMatic has been used by more than 40,000 users at more than 350 institutions worldwide and, even during the pilot phase, has achieved a reduction of 3.8 hours of work per person per week. It is an edtech solution that not only reduces the workload of educators and promotes operational efficiency, but also allows them to spend more time on ‘real education,’ such as interacting with each learner and providing detailed learning support.

A laptop screen displays the Teachermatic platform interface with two pop-up windows, alongside the Teachermatic and Avallain Group logos, and a Correos notification visible in the corner.

More Than 150 Generators Designed for Education Help Streamline and Increase the Productivity of Any Educational Operation

TeacherMatic supports all aspects of educational work, including lesson planning
and preparation, teaching materials, test questions, evaluation criteria, feedback and other educational resources, as well as school work such as preparation for school events and PR activities. It streamlines the educational work of the entire organisation.

Quickly Obtain the Right Product for the Right Purpose by Simply Entering Information in the Form Provided for Each Generator
TeacherMatic’s generators have input forms for setting items that are unique to education, such as class title, learning theme, field of study and target learner conditions, so there is no need to write complex prompts from scratch. By simply selecting a generator that suits your purpose or situation and inputting information, you can easily obtain highly accurate generated results, which can then be exported and utilised in Word, Excel, PDF, or any other format you need. Even in cases where general-purpose generation AI fails to produce the desired results, TeacherMatic can produce effective outcomes.

 

Strong Security Protects Highly Confidential Data, Making the Convenience of AI Generation Safe and Secure

TeacherMatic, based on Microsoft’s Azure OpenAI, which local governments, the financial industry and large corporations use, complies with strict guidelines such as the EU’s Ethics Guidelines for Trustworthy AI*. Input data is not used to train generative AI, making it safe for use in organisational operations. In addition, unique filtering and checking functions block sensitive information, copyrighted content and discriminatory expressions from being included in the input content and generated results, thus maintaining appropriate use of generative AI throughout the organisation.

A computer screen displays a lesson plan form in Japanese, with fields for topic, subject, duration, grade level, options, and result—styled similarly to Correos digital forms.

Future Initiatives: Supporting the Efficiency of Educational Operations of all Types of Organisations, Including Higher Education Institutions, K12 and Corporations

Correos will propose TeacherMatic to educational institutions, companies, organisations and other organisations that operate educational businesses, helping to solve issues such as reducing the workload of teachers and instructors, ensuring well-being and improving the productivity of the entire organisation. By streamlining the various tasks associated with education through TeacherMatic, we will contribute to the realisation of an environment in which educators can focus on their primary job of teaching.

]]>

We recently announced our new TeacherMatic and Jisc partnership, designed to simplify access to trusted AI tools for the UK education sector. As part of Jisc’s CHEST platform, TeacherMatic is now available to all member institutions via a streamlined, price-guaranteed licensing model.

To celebrate the launch, we co-hosted the “Unlocking the Power of AI in Education” webinar, bringing together education leaders to explore how AI is transforming teaching, assessment, curriculum design and leadership workflows in both Further and Higher Education.

 

Watch the full webinar replay

The full webinar is available now on demand, which includes an introduction from Hannah Lawrence, Licensing Manager at Jisc, a powerful live demo of TeacherMatic by Peter Kilcoyne, Managing Director at TeacherMatic, real-world case studies from Laura Milne and Katharine Welsh from the University of Chester, Amanda Sidall from Bury College and practical guidance on getting started via the Jisc CHEST platform, covering the following topics:

✔ Secure, GDPR-compliant AI use

✔ Time-saving generators for feedback, planning, rubrics and assessments

✔ Implementation strategies and case studies

✔ Exclusive pricing via the Jisc CHEST platform

✔ CPD and staff development with AI

Why this new licensing partnership matters

Jisc plays a vital role in the UK education system, supporting all publicly funded universities and colleges with digital infrastructure, licensing and strategic services. As the national consortium for education technology, Jisc provides institutions with access to secure networks, open access tools, learner analytics and sector-wide agreements.

Through its CHEST platform, Jisc negotiates trusted, price-guaranteed licensing deals that help educators adopt innovative technologies easily and affordably. The decision to include TeacherMatic in CHEST followed two successful pilot programmes with a third underway, driven by real demand from educators.

Hannah Lawrence from Jisc said:

“After two successful pilots with the Jisc AI team and a third in the works, we’re incredibly pleased to have this partnership in place with TeacherMatic. After great member feedback, we’re excited to provide simplified access to this tool through the CHEST platform.”

This licensing partnership is about more than procurement. It’s about enabling teachers, curriculum leaders, quality managers, and support teams to work smarter with AI that’s ethical, efficient and designed explicitly for education.

Peter Kilcoyne shared:

“We’re thrilled to be working with Jisc to expand access to our platform. Their CHEST platform is respected across the sector, and we’re proud to be joining its roster of impactful, trusted tools. This partnership is about making ethical, time-saving AI available to everyone without barriers.”

 

Here’s how the licensing partnership helps organisations across the sector:

  • Trusted, simplified procurement via the Jisc CHEST platform
  • Price-guaranteed licences for all Jisc member organisations
  • Institution-wide access to 150+ AI tools built for education
  • Cross-department adoption using tools for teaching, leadership, quality, HR and more
  • Ongoing support through webinars, resources and expert engagement
  • A partnership shaped by real feedback from the UK education community

 

Putting AI into practice

The webinar focused on procurement and real impact.

As Peter Kilcoyne explained:

“Over 150 different generators designed in partnership with practitioners to do day-to-day tasks.”

Popular use cases covered in the webinar included:

  • Feedback generation – speeding up the marking process with consistent, rubric-aligned feedback
  • Lesson planning and resource creation – creating engaging, accessible materials in minutes
  • Leadership and quality support – generating SARs, QIPs and reports to streamline compliance
  • Mock interview questions and tasks – helping students prepare for real-world job interviews

Peter Kilcoyne added:

“Across many organisations, we partner up with practitioners, teachers and more recently, with managers as we’re developing some management tools to build the tool exactly, so it fits the needs of people in universities and in colleges. We use this co-development model where everything is driven by our customers and built in partnership with them.”

TeacherMatic’s tools aren’t just for the classroom, they support whole-institution innovation. From curriculum planning to leadership communications and quality assurance, departments across colleges and universities are embedding AI into daily practice.

 

Real-world insights from the University of Chester’s Approach

At the University of Chester, TeacherMatic is embedded into daily practice, supporting both academic and professional services staff. As part of Jisc’s pilot programme, 50 academics trialled the tool, using it to create resources, generate feedback and design new teaching activities.

Laura Milne, Head of Digital Education at the University of Chester, stated:

“We ran weekly TeacherMatic challenges, so we got people to use different generators, maybe generators they wouldn’t have otherwise used. That was really valuable, because it meant that people got to experiment in a structured way and share their outputs.”

 

Bury College’s Approach to AI and Workload Reduction

Amanda Sidall also shared how they are using TeacherMatic at Bury College as part of its digital and wellbeing strategy, helping staff reduce workload while improving the quality of teaching resources.

“Staff report saving hours. I look at the analytics pretty much every day with TeacherMatic… and it can be as high as 6 hours saved on research, resource creation, scheme of work planning and assessment.”

The specialist refugee employment charity, Breaking Barriers, is expanding access to English learning for refugees in the UK by equipping its volunteer teachers with free access to TeacherMatic, Avallain’s AI toolkit for educators.

Breaking Barriers Teams Up with Avallain and TeacherMatic to Support Volunteer Teachers and Refugees

London, July 2025Breaking Barriers, a UK-based charity dedicated to helping refugees access meaningful employment and education, has partnered with Avallain and TeacherMatic to enhance its English language support. 

As part of this collaboration, 30 volunteer teachers working with refugee learners will receive free access to TeacherMatic, including all AI generators and features designed specifically for language teaching.

 

Supporting Flexible, Learner-Centred Education

Breaking Barriers works with hundreds of refugees each year, many of whom face significant obstacles to attending in-person classes. Their network of volunteer teachers provides flexible English tuition tailored to each individual’s learning needs and life circumstances.

‘Attending mainstream in-person classes just isn’t possible for many of the people we support, due to their unique circumstances,’ says Ilaria Tarulli, Head of Language Programme of Breaking Barriers. ‘That is why our amazing community of volunteer, qualified teachers, who so generously give their time to offer flexible online tuition, is absolutely essential to what we do. TeacherMatic has become an invaluable tool in helping our tutors build tailored and effective English learning journeys for our students, truly supporting them to thrive and providing access to language tuition for those who might not otherwise have the opportunity.’

‘We are so grateful to Avallain for donating access to their platform and for choosing to start this journey with us. We can’t wait to see what we can achieve together – and what our clients go on to accomplish – through this exciting and meaningful collaboration!’

 

AI That Supports High-Quality, Ethical Language Teaching

TeacherMatic is an award-winning AI toolkit developed to unlock educators’ full potential while keeping ethics and learner safety at its core. While it supports teachers across subjects, its language teaching edition is valuable to language teachers of all kinds, including those working with refugee learners. It offers dozens of CEFR-aligned AI generators that help teachers quickly create accurate and engaging materials. 

From lesson planning to adapting content for specific levels and target audiences to generating constructive feedback and more, educators can accelerate their workflow while maintaining the highest quality. In a context where time, flexibility and individualisation are critical, these features make a meaningful difference for both learners and teachers.

‘It means a great deal to us that TeacherMatic is being used to support such an important mission,’ says Peter Kilcoyne, Managing Director of TeacherMatic. ‘Knowing that our AI toolkit is helping dedicated volunteers deliver high-quality, personalised language teaching reinforces our belief that AI should support, not replace, the work of great teachers and help unlock their full potential.’

 

Technology That Amplifies Impact

This partnership builds on Breaking Barriers’ commitment to learner-focused education and is supported by Avallain’s belief in ethical, human-centred technology. TeacherMatic helps reduce teachers’ preparation burden while enabling more personalised and targeted learning materials, a key factor when supporting individuals working toward integration, independence and long-term opportunity.

‘This collaboration with Breaking Barriers is a clear expression of what drives us,’ says Ursula Suter, Executive Chairwoman and Co-founder of Avallain. ‘We believe that technology and AI must always serve a purpose. This initiative reflects the power of responsibly developed edtech solutions to support education for all, especially those who face the greatest barriers.’

Breaking Barriers helps refugees in the UK access employment and education opportunities through personalised support, English language tuition and sector-specific training.

Jisc launch national AI Assessment Pilot partnering with TeacherMatic https://teachermatic.com/2025/05/28/jisc-launch-national-ai-assessment-pilot-partnering-with-teachermatic/ Wed, 28 May 2025 07:47:32 +0000 https://teachermatic.com/?p=49062 A new 12-month pilot project will allow eight UK colleges and universities to explore how generative AI can support staff

The post Jisc launch national AI Assessment Pilot partnering with TeacherMatic appeared first on TeacherMatic.

]]>

A new 12-month pilot project will allow eight UK colleges and universities to explore how generative AI can support staff with marking and feedback.

TeacherMatic, the AI platform built for educators, is partnering with Jiscʼs National Centre for AI in Tertiary Education to run a national assessment pilot from September 2025 to August 2026. The pilot is now open for applications, offering 50 staff licences per institution and a structured programme of support, training, and evaluation.

A Focus on reducing marking and feedback workload

Marking and feedback continue to be significant pressure points for educators. This pilot will assess the impact of AI-powered support on time spent preparing, delivering, and personalising formative assessment across various subject areas and assessment types.

Each participating institution will be asked to identify where it intends to use TeacherMatic —defining the subject, assessment type, cohort size, and dates—then track its experience throughout the academic year via regular progress reports and evaluation checkpoints.

Importantly, TeacherMatic is a staff-led tool, meaning no student accounts or logins are required. Itʼs a standalone platform that doesnʼt rely on system integrations to get started— though optional integrations with Google Classroom, Microsoft Teams, and other platforms are available if needed.

Whatʼs included in the pilot?

Each of the eight selected institutions will receive:

  • 50 TeacherMatic licences for the full academic year (Sept 2025 – Aug 2026)
  • Live onboarding sessions, including an institution-wide staff intro and a Project Lead training session
  • Self-paced resources, including a Getting Started course, a Help Centre, walkthrough videos, and a resource hub
  • Community events, such as Deep Dive webinars and pilot-wide check-ins
  • Ongoing guidance through monthly collaboration sessions and optional vendor calls

 

This is a practical, hands-on opportunity for staff to explore where generative AI can add value, whether drafting model answers, structuring rubrics, generating formative quizzes, or giving personalised feedback.

Evaluation and research

Jisc will conduct a complete evaluation of the pilot in April 2026, gathering insights through:

  • Staff and student surveys
  • Institutional focus groups
  • Input from Project Leads and pilot sponsors

 

The evaluation will assess:

  • The impact on the marking and feedback workload
  • How AI is perceived and used by different stakeholders
  • The effectiveness and suitability of the TeacherMatic platform
  • Lessons to shape future AI pilots and adoption strategies

What happens after the pilot?

There is no obligation to subscribe after the pilot, but participating institutions will receive full pricing and implementation support details.

For reference, TeacherMatic costs £30 per staff user per year when purchased in volumes of 50 or more licences.

How to apply

Applications are now open and must be submitted by 20 June 2025. To learn more and submit your application, visit:

https://nationalcentreforai.jiscinvolve.org/wp/2025/05/14/teachermatic-assessment-pilotcall-for-applications/

If your institution is looking to explore the potential of AI for assessment in a responsible, educator-driven way, this is the ideal opportunity to get involved.

The post International House World Organisation to Roll Out TeacherMatic Across Global Network appeared first on TeacherMatic.

After a successful pilot across International House schools, TeacherMatic has been officially adopted as IHWO’s preferred AI toolkit for teachers. Built for real-world classroom needs and developed with a strong ethical foundation through Avallain Intelligence, the platform will now be made available to the entire IH network.

 

London, 7 May 2025 – After months of hands-on piloting with teachers in its network, International House World Organisation (IHWO) has chosen the TeacherMatic Language Teaching Edition as its preferred AI toolset for language educators. IHWO is facilitating access to the platform for their affiliate schools through an exclusive offer, providing their teaching teams with AI support that is safe, ethical, intuitive and designed specifically for language education.

 

Successful Pilot Confirms Teacher Confidence and Classroom Value

The decision follows a carefully structured pilot involving multiple IH schools, during which teachers used TeacherMatic to generate lesson plans, grammar tasks, vocabulary activities, discussion prompts and more. 

‘We are thrilled to partner with TeacherMatic to bring their cutting-edge AI generators to the schools in our organisation. This collaboration is about giving our schools access to the latest AI technology, enabling educators to innovate, save time, focus on what matters most and support students’ growth and success.’ – Shaun Wilden, Digital Innovation Advisor, IHWO.

Building on a Foundation of Innovation in Teacher Development

This latest development builds on a wider collaboration between IHWO and Avallain that began when IHWO selected Avallain Magnet alongside Avallain Author to create and deliver high-quality digital teacher training programmes.

With this foundation in place, the adoption of the TeacherMatic Language Teaching Edition extends the collaboration into the day-to-day reality of the language classroom, offering teachers practical, time-saving AI tools designed to meet the specific needs of language educators.

This expansion reflects a shared commitment to equipping teachers and teacher educators with tools that are not only powerful and efficient but also designed with care, pedagogy and ethics in mind.

 

A Toolset Tailored for Language Teaching

The TeacherMatic’s Language Teaching Edition was developed specifically for language educators, offering powerful, CEFR-aligned AI generators designed for practical, everyday use. Whether planning a lesson or enhancing a sequence with differentiated tasks, TeacherMatic provides a reliable AI partner built with pedagogical depth and classroom flexibility in mind.

‘TeacherMatic is a great example of what happens when AI is developed with teachers in mind, not to replace their expertise, but to amplify it. We’re proud to see IH World lead the way in showing how responsible, curriculum-aligned AI can benefit teaching practice at scale.’ – Ian Johnstone, VP Partnerships, Avallain.

‘We built the Language Teaching Edition of TeacherMatic to solve real problems language teachers face every day, finding time to plan, adapting for different levels and contexts and meeting high standards with limited resources. IH World’s decision to adopt the platform across its global network is a strong endorsement of that mission. We’re excited to support more teachers through this collaboration.’ –  Peter Kilcoyne, Managing Director, TeacherMatic.

 

Grounded in Ethics: Avallain Intelligence and Responsible AI

Setting the foundation of TeacherMatic is Avallain Intelligence, the responsible AI strategy that guides all development across Avallain products to ensure that AI enhances productivity while upholding the principles of ethics and safety. AI should serve as a tool to support educators, not replace them, preserving the human element at the heart of learning.

As AI becomes more embedded in education, institutions face critical questions about pedagogy, assessment and data use. Thoughtfully-designed, context-specific AI tools such as TeacherMatic, shaped through real teacher feedback, offer a path to confident, ethical innovation in the classroom.

 

Looking Ahead: Live Demonstrations at the IH Directors Conference 2025

With the IH Directors Conference (8th 10th May 2025) taking place, this announcement comes at a key moment for school leaders across the IH network. Avallain will be on-site throughout the event, offering live demonstrations of the TeacherMatic Language Teaching Edition and engaging directly with IH directors on how AI can support their strategic goals for teaching quality and staff development.

Attendees will be able to explore the full suite of over 20 AI-powered generators included in the Language Teaching Edition, each designed to address real classroom needs. These include:

  • Lesson Plan Generator: Create structured lesson plans based on your inputs, such as CEFR level, target skills and pedagogical approach.
  • Adapt Your Content: Transform your existing content to align with your desired CEFR level, target audience and desired length.
  • Feedback Generator: Provide constructive feedback on student submissions, based on an assignment brief and various grading options.
  • Dialogue Creator: Generate natural-sounding dialogues on a given topic or situation. This can be used as role-play in class or as an example of authentic communication.
  • Create a text: Quickly and easily generate text tailored to your chosen vocabulary or grammar, at your desired CEFR level.

 

All tools are fully customisable, allowing teachers to control tone, CEFR alignment and task type, as well as pedagogical models such as Communicative Language Teaching (CLT), Lexical approach, Presentation – Practice – Production, Task-based learning and Test – Teach – Test. These features ensure materials are relevant, purposeful and appropriate for a wide range of teaching contexts.

The conference will also be an opportunity for IH leaders to learn how TeacherMatic, developed under the Avallain Intelligence framework, ensures transparency, ethical integration and institutional control, giving schools the confidence to innovate responsibly and with pedagogical integrity. 

 

About International House World Organisation (IHWO)

International House World Organisation is a global network of over 135+ affiliated private language schools in more than  35+ countries. Since 1953, IHWO has been committed to delivering high-quality language education and teacher training, setting global standards for innovation and professionalism in the  language teaching sector.

As the first Primary Multi-Academy Trust to adopt TeacherMatic, this collaboration aims to foster high-impact teaching and prioritise staff well-being across a network of schools.

London, April 2025Connect Education Trust, a Multi-Academy Trust comprising seven schools and serving over 3,500 pupils, has partnered with TeacherMatic, the AI toolkit for teachers and part of the Avallain Group. The collaboration is designed to support teachers across the Trust by enhancing pedagogical practices, streamlining planning and reducing workload through responsible use of GenAI.

The organisation brings together a diverse group of primary and special schools across North London, with a focus on delivering high-quality education and fostering collaborative improvement. In the Trust’s last two Ofsted inspections, the schools secured Outstanding grades in every judgement area. 

“Innovation is a key part of our success, but we recognise that the key to creating environments where young people can thrive is the connection between ideas, people and infrastructure. That is why we see this partnership as being much more than an edtech deployment,” said Androulla Nicou, Chief Executive Officer from Connect Education Trust. 

“The TeacherMatic team have worked with us and listened to all of our feedback to ensure  the platform integrates smoothly with how we work and is intuitive and effective for the people who use it.”

Supporting Educators, Empowering Learners

Connect Education Trust’s decision to adopt TeacherMatic reflects four key objectives:

  • Pedagogical Impact: TeacherMatic will help Connect Education Trust educators generate structured, evidence-informed content and provide feedback that supports learner progress and independence.
  • Ease of Use: Its simple interface and broad accessibility will make onboarding straightforward for staff at every digital skill level.
  • Well-Being and Workload: By automating repetitive tasks, TeacherMatic frees up valuable time for the staff, reducing stress and promoting teacher well-being.
  • Expert Support: The TeacherMatic team has worked closely with the Trust throughout the setup process, ensuring tailored implementation and responsive support.

 

A First Among Primary MATs in Responsible AI Adoption

As the first Primary Multi-Academy Trust to integrate TeacherMatic, Connect Education Trust is setting a precedent for how primary MATs can meaningfully embrace AI in education. Their leadership demonstrates how AI can be responsibly integrated not only to increase efficiency but to strengthen pedagogy and support educator well-being at scale.

This adoption aligns with insights from Avallain’s recent online briefing, ‘Leading with Confidence: What MATs Need to Know About GenAI in Education’, which highlighted the need for strategic, ethical AI integration tailored to institutional needs.

“We’re proud to support Connect Education Trust in their journey towards more sustainable and impactful teaching,” said Peter Kilkoyne, Managing Director of TeacherMatic. “They are pioneers in showing how primary MATs can use AI not just to save time but to uplift both staff and students.”
