BEYOND THE POLICY

Good AI guidance makes room for learning.

It should be clear what helps a student understand, what needs a teacher’s permission, and what crosses the line, whether work is on paper, online or in a classroom.

The toolkit helps schools make those decisions, while linking AI use to existing safeguarding procedures.

EXAMPLE, STUDENT AI USECLASSROOM GUIDE

Helpful when approved

Ask for hints, practise a skill, check understanding.

Ask your teacher first

Use AI for drafting, editing or a school assignment.

Not permitted

Present AI-generated work as your own or use it in prohibited assessments.

Local rules and awarding-body conditions take priority.
GROUNDED IN GUIDANCE

Built around the responsibilities schools already have.

Each template points schools toward the relevant official guidance and the people who should review it locally.

These are editable models informed by published guidance. They are not official DfE templates, government endorsement or legal advice.
