Teachers are using artificial intelligence (AI) to save time by "automating tasks", says a government report first seen by the BBC.
Adapting the reading age of texts, making handouts, and writing emails to parents were cited as popular uses, with a "small number" saying they used it for grading and feedback.
Teachers said it gave them more time to do "more impactful" work.
But the report also warned that AI can produce unreliable or biased content.
The Department for Education (DfE) report is based on 567 responses to a call for evidence about AI in education, including schools, over the summer. Most submissions were from England.
It found that most respondents were "broadly optimistic" about the use of AI in education, but almost all had some hesitations.
They worried about AI producing false information including when marking assessments, for example.
