Event Summary

Schools and colleges across Wales are increasingly using AI to support teaching, learning and assessment.

Join Policy Insight Wales online for our inaugural AI in Education Wales Digital Conference to learn more about the opportunities of generative AI in schools and education settings across Wales.

Drawing on Welsh Government guidance on generative AI in education, we will address key ethical, safeguarding, and privacy considerations, helping you ensure that you are adopting AI in an ethical, safe, and inclusive way.

Discover how generative AI can be used in education settings to reduce teacher workload, streamline administrative tasks, and support learners. Take away best practice examples from Welsh schools and colleges already using AI effectively, including lesson preparation, curriculum design, assessment, and marking. We will also explore how AI can enhance learning through tutoring and personalised approaches and preparing learners for a rapidly changing digital world.

With education settings advised to complete data protection impact assessments before deploying AI tools, gain clarity on how to use AI lawfully. Spotlighting safeguarding, our expert speakers will highlight best practice guidance for protecting learners from emerging risks linked to AI.

You will hear about how AI aligns with the Curriculum for Wales, including the growing importance of AI literacy, critical thinking, and digital competence to ensure learners can engage responsibly with these technologies. How can a refreshed Digital Competence Framework (DCF) support effective teaching and learning about AI?

As AI becomes increasingly embedded in education, don’t miss this opportunity to understand how to integrate it effectively into your setting.
