Artificial intelligence has huge potential in schools – both to support student learning and reduce, or at least change the nature of, teacher workload.

But as with all new and emerging technology there are risks as well as opportunities as schools get to grips with new ways of working.

It is acknowledged that the education sector is not well prepared for the “ethical and pedagogical integration of these rapidly evolving tools” to quote UNESCO – its evidence suggests that less than 10% of schools have policies and/or formal guidance in place concerning the use of generative AI applications.

This two-day online conference organised by SecEd and Headteacher Update will offer in-depth interactive sessions showcasing work that is happening on the ground in primary and secondary schools to manage the AI revolution.
