Schools: Artificial Intelligence
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, what discussions she has had with school leaders regarding the use of artificial intelligence in education.
Answered by Olivia Bailey
The department carries out regular direct engagement with school leaders, alongside teachers, support staff, unions, and experts, to better understand what schools need most when implementing AI in their settings. This includes working closely with school leaders through our flagship programmes, including the EdTech Evidence Board, EdTech Test Beds Programme and AI tutoring tools programme (joint with DSIT).
We have published support materials, developed by the sector for the sector, to help school leaders and staff use AI safely and effectively. This includes guidance for leaders to address the risks and opportunities that AI presents across the various phases of education.
