AI in schools: What leaders are adjusting after the first wave

Many schools moved quickly when generative AI tools first appeared. Guidance for teachers was drafted, policies were written, and conversations about assessment began almost immediately. A few years on, schools are revisiting those early responses as their understanding of AI’s impact on teaching and learning continues to develop.This session explores how school leaders are refining their approach and what they’ve learned since those initial decisions.

Audience takeaways: 

• Examples of how schools are revisiting or updating their initial AI guidance and policies
• Practical insights into how teachers and leaders are adapting assessment approaches as AI becomes more common in classrooms
• Lessons schools have learned from the first few years of AI use in teaching and learning
