AI: HOW TO DEVELOP YOUR SCHOOL POLICY - Face to Face
The purpose of this workshop is to equip school leaders and educators with the knowledge and tools needed to navigate the evolving landscape of artificial intelligence in education. Participants will assess their school’s AI readiness, explore how AI functions in everyday life, and consider the ethical, practical, and educational implications of integrating AI into school environments. The workshop will highlight key concerns, risks, and benefits, and unpack how frameworks such as the Common Sense AI rating principles and the Policy Guidance on AI for Children influence responsible school policy development. Participants will also explore issues such as AI bias and align relevant elements of the “Responsible Use Policy” to AI governance. Through collaborative discussions and policy examples, the workshop aims to support schools in crafting thoughtful, values-based AI policies that promote ethical, safe, and effective use of AI technologies.
