Inside

20 ready-made, market-tested prompts: governor reports, parental newsletters, inspection briefings, staff CPD, school improvement narratives
The STAGE School AI Governance Framework — five pillars for institutional AI policy (Scope, Transparency, Accountability, Guardrails, Evolution)
A school improvement workflow that turns half a day of self-evaluation drafting into 90 minutes
A staff AI capability programme that brings teachers along without anxiety or chaos

Who this is for

School leaders with whole-school or departmental accountability: headteachers, principals, executive headteachers, deputy headteachers, vice principals, assistant headteachers, and heads of department with line management and strategic responsibilities. Also multi-academy trust (MAT) leaders, school network directors, and school business managers. These readers set direction, manage staff, analyse performance data, report to governing bodies and inspectors, and communicate with parents and communities. Many have stepped back from regular classroom teaching. Their daily work involves leading people and managing information rather than delivering lessons.

Also for:Governors and trustees seeking to understand AI's role in school governance; school business managers handling administrative and financial reporting; senior teachers taking on leadership responsibilities for the first time; education system leaders at local authority or regional level.
