The School AI Guide

For schools

Help with AI for your school

We help your school check its AI tools and rules, then give plain advice on what to do next.

In Victorian government schools, the department's generative AI policy sets requirements that each school puts into practice. We help with that step. Why we started.

Advice, training and adapting the pack to your school are paid. The governance pack itself will be free to read here once we have checked it.

  1. Governance pack

    A ready-to-adapt set of documents. Its firm rules come from Victorian Department of Education policy, which binds Victorian government schools, and from VCAA rules, which bind every Victorian school that offers VCE. Catholic and independent schools, and schools in other states, can check their sector's or state's rules.

How we work

We start from the teaching job, not the product.

We help you choose tools by what your teachers and students need to do, and by the facts in each vendor's terms. If your staff already use AI, start with what the school can do next.
