In this must-listen episode of The Late Show with James Radburn on Teachers Talk Radio, James sits down with Emma Darcy, one of the UK’s most recognised EdTech leaders. Together, they unpack the real-world impact of artificial intelligence in education, from the classroom to curriculum design—and why amplifying student voice is more critical than ever in the age of AI.

Emma shares:
• What sparked her deep interest in AI and how she’s using it to rethink teaching and learning.
• Why banning tech misses the point—and how schools can build digital character.
• The ethical, practical, and philosophical challenges AI presents to teachers and students alike.
• Why AI literacy, future-ready skills, and authentic human relationships must coexist.

Whether you’re a classroom teacher, school leader, or EdTech enthusiast, this episode offers a nuanced, inspiring take on how AI can support—not replace—great education.
