AI-enabled tools and products are now more widely available in schools and other providers. This means that these technologies are affecting children and learners and the people who care for, educate and support them.
Ofsted supports innovation and the use of AI where it improves the education and care of children. The following documents set out our approach to the use of AI:
- Ofsted’s use of AI: details our approach to using AI lawfully, ethically and responsibly in our work.
- How Ofsted looks at AI during inspection and regulation: sets out the broad principles for how we will consider uses of AI encountered on inspection.
