Ms Shaw and Mrs Mulholland delivered a wonderful workshop at today’s Derry Diocesan Religious Education Conference. They shared thoughtful and practical ways in which children from all backgrounds and faith traditions can be supported and helped to flourish in Catholic schools.

Copilot for teachers.
As the Copilot rollout begins across the North of Ireland, teachers are gaining access to increasingly powerful AI tools through EdIS/C2k.
Here are four practical ways Copilot can support teachers while professional judgement remains central.
6 practical ways principals can use AI beyond efficiency. Spotting patterns, listening to staff voice, testing decisions, reviewing mission alignment, protecting confidentiality and strengthening judgement.
AI should support, not replace, care, consultation and responsibility.
Delighted to be delivering a session at the Derry Diocesan Schools’ Religious Education Conference on the 25th and 26th August, exploring how AI can support Catholic education while keeping the dignity of the human person, truth, relationships and formation at the centre.
Very grateful for the opportunity to tour the American Football training facilities at the University of Notre Dame! ☘️
