HEARTs Academy Trust just left a new 5-star review of tablet.academy

A huge thank you to HEARTS Academy Trust for their feedback following a full day of CPD with Simon, focused on Copilot and the wider Microsoft AI ecosystem.

Here's what they had to say:

"School and Trust leaders, along with office teams and administrative staff from HEARTS Academy Trust, recently took part in a full day of CPD delivered by the excellent Simon from Tablet Academy.

The training focused on Copilot and the wider Microsoft AI ecosystem, covering areas such as prompt coaching, agentic AI, and the Teach platform. The insights shared highlighted truly game-changing potential in helping our teams work smarter and more efficiently.

The session was highly engaging, interactive, and thought-provoking, delivered with both deep expertise and a personable approach. It was clear, practical, and immediately relevant to our roles. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and look forward to working with Tablet Academy again in the future."

It's great to hear the positive feedback from the session with the HEARTS team.

Is your school or college using Microsoft Copilot to support teaching and learning?

Are you using Copilot+ PCs, or curious to explore what they can unlock?

TA Education is partnering with Microsoft to run a small number of pilot programmes, building on Learning Zone (https://learningzone.microsoft.com) to scale and showcase its impact in real classrooms.

We’re inviting just four schools or colleges to take part. Participating institutions will need to have access to Copilot+ PCs for at least five teaching staff.

The programme runs from June to November, with free training and ongoing support throughout.

You’ll get direct engagement with the Microsoft product team, shaping the future of AI-powered learning, along with PR and case study opportunities, and the chance to showcase real impact on teacher workload and student outcomes.

If you're interested in being part of the pilot email us at 👉 [email protected] with your details.
