The reality

Why schools are switching from MagicSchool AI

Teachers and admins searching for a MagicSchool AI alternative are usually hitting the same walls. Here is what keeps coming up.

Compliance gaps create real risk

Schools need FERPA and COPPA guarantees before rolling out any AI tool. Vague data policies put administrators in a difficult position.

No real collaboration across departments

Teachers work in silos because there is no shared resource bank. Departments rebuild the same lessons over and over with no way to standardise.

Outputs are text documents not classroom slides

Most AI lesson tools produce text plans teachers still have to turn into actual slides. That is half the work still left to do.

Built for schools that need more than a text planner

Compliant school-wide rollout with admin controls

School Administration

Compliant school-wide rollout with admin controls

Chalkie's Schools Plan gives administrators linked teacher accounts, an admin usage dashboard, centralised billing, and confirmed FERPA and COPPA compliance โ€” with zero student data stored and no IT setup required.

  • FERPA and COPPA compliant, zero student data stored
  • Admin usage dashboard and centralised billing
  • 30-day refund guarantee, no IT setup needed
Presentation-ready lesson slides in 30 seconds

Lesson Planning

Presentation-ready lesson slides in 30 seconds
