The AI Framework for Schools: Providing Guidance and Support for Teachers and Students

The AI Framework for Schools was developed through an inclusive and evidence-informed process. It aims to provide principles, guiding statements, and expectations to guide schools and industry in using generative AI technology. The framework covers areas such as privacy, information security, teaching and learning, ethics, and accountability. It emphasizes the importance of using AI tools as complements to teachers' expertise and judgment, rather than as replacements. While the framework is high-level, there is ongoing work to support teachers in applying its principles and incorporating AI into their classrooms. The goal is to ensure equitable access to quality AI models and to empower teachers to use these technologies to enhance teaching and learning.
