Introducing Claude for Teachers

What's new

• Free Claude Opus 4.6: verified US K-12 teachers get the model (normally $20/month) at no cost if they sign up by June 30, 2027
• Teaching skills: lesson planning, student differentiation, and formative assessment tools — grounded in learning science
• Learning Commons connector: curricula mapped to academic standards in all 50 states
• Integrated ecosystem: ASSISTments, Brisk Teaching, Canva Education, Coteach, Diffit, Eedi, MagicSchool, Snorkl
• Data protection: Claude for Teachers data is not used for model training; K-12 Data Processing Addendum (FERPA)

Why it matters

Anthropic is entering the K-12 education market with a more premium offer than Google Classroom Gemini or Microsoft Copilot for Education — built on a frontier model with curriculum standards rather than a generic AI assistant.

How to try it
