In the latest @EdTodayMag, Alex Dave (@LGfLSafeguardED lead) delves into AI literacy, particularly the updated RSHE guidance for September 2026.

Is your filtering “Set and Forget”? 🛡️
Standards require schools to have a robust approach to filtering and monitoring AI.
We recommend that "AI Chat and Image Generators" be blocked by default for all users, with specific URLs only allowed for specific users, once they have been approved using the DfE Product Safety Standards as a benchmark.
❓Is this reflected in your filtering?
❓Is this even possible - if you don't have user authentication of HTTPS decryption in place?
Our NEW AI Policy Toolkit helps you align your school’s technical systems with the 2026 @educationgovuk Product Safety Standards and KCSIE requirements.
