September INSET planning is already underway.

With the Milburn Report putting skills, opportunity and future careers back in the spotlight, it feels important to give staff the confidence to engage with one of the biggest changes affecting education and work.

We're offering free, in-person AI training for secondary school staff, delivered at your school by us in partnership with @MSEducationUK as part of the @Accenture AI Regenerative Roadshow.

In 90 minutes, we'll cover:

🤖 What AI is (and isn't)

🛡️ Safeguarding and responsible use

📚 Workload and classroom applications

🚀 What students need to know about AI and future careers

✅ Staff leave with practical resources they can use straight away.

Spaces are limited.
