Built for schools worried about getting AI wrong
AI for Primary Schools exists because most AI advice aimed at education focuses on "cool classroom ideas" and skips the part that actually keeps headteachers up at night: policy, risk, safeguarding and GDPR.
We start from governance and work outward — because that's the order schools with budgets to spend actually think in.
What we believe
- Governance comes before "cool ideas"
- Every school is different — templates only get you so far
- Staff time is the real currency AI should be saving
- Training beats tooling
Delivered in partnership with AskColin
Training and consultancy on this site is delivered by AskColin, an AI support service for UK primary schools that helps teams save 4–12 hours of admin time and 2–6 hours per teacher every week, using the Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace systems schools already have — no new software to buy or manage.
AskColin's approach is built around a simple principle that shapes everything on this site too: AI assists, people decide. Every document, template and piece of guidance is a starting point that must be reviewed, personalised and approved by the school — professional and legal responsibility always remains with the headteacher and governing body. It's why Governance Hub sits alongside Teachers and Senior Leaders as a top-level section here, not buried three clicks deep.
