A parent and carer guide to AI in your child's school

This guide is written for parents and carers who want to understand how AI tools are being used in their children's schools.

It explains, in plain language, what AI tools do in educational settings, how student data is typically handled, what safeguards should be in place, and what questions parents can ask schools about their AI use.

The guide covers common AI applications including feedback tools, content generators, adaptive learning platforms, and monitoring tools, explaining the benefits and risks of each in an accessible way.

It includes a one-page summary of questions parents can take to school governors or parent forums.
