AI+ School Leaders Workbook

Practice companion to AI+ School Leaders

Practice companion to T2-12.

You know the frameworks. Your governor report is still due Friday.

You've read the frameworks. Your governor report is still due Friday. This five-week workbook turns the School Leader Task-AI Map, PRISM, TRUST, and the STAGE Governance Framework into your actual practice — real data narratives, a real staff conversation, a real Scope policy draft, and a School AI Strategy Canvas built from what you've already done. Built by an AI engineering firm for school leaders who know the theory — and need the habit.

Inside
  • 48 structured exercises across five weeks — one per real leadership task, not a theory recap
  • Weeks 1–2 — capability and communication: PRISM prompts, TRUST checks, governor report packs
  • Week 3 — people and operations: a staff concerns survey, CPD plans, HR documents
  • Week 4 — governance: a full STAGE audit, a first-draft Scope policy, a safeguarding drill
  • Week 5 — strategy: a School AI Strategy Canvas and 30-Day Leadership AI Starter Plan
Who this is for

A school leader — headteacher, principal, deputy head, head of faculty, or school business manager — who has read (or is working through) AI+ School Leaders (T2-12) and wants structured, progressive practice to turn its frameworks into a working leadership habit. They are not looking for more explanation of what AI can do; they want to draft the real governor report, run the real staff conversation, and write the real policy section.

Also for:A senior leadership team using the workbook as a shared practice arc ahead of a governor AI update; a multi-academy trust running it as a leadership-development cohort across several headteachers; a school leadership coach or trust CPD lead using it as a facilitated programme.

You’ll be able to
  • Produce AI-assisted governor reports, data narratives, and school improvement plan sections using the School Leader Task-AI Map and PRISM Prompting Framework, and evaluate each output against the TRUST Framework before it reaches a governor, inspector, or parent
  • Design and run the opening phase of a staff AI adoption programme — a concerns survey, a staff communication, and a CPD session plan — grounded in the three staff concerns and change-management principles from the parent book
  • Draft the operational and HR documents school leadership produces every term (job descriptions, appraisal objectives, budget narratives, policy first drafts), applying the Scale Effort to Stakes principle to decide how much review each requires
  • Complete a STAGE School AI Governance audit of your own school and draft the Scope, Transparency, and Guardrails elements of a whole-school AI-use policy, tested against a safeguarding-and-data calibration drill
  • Build and commit to a personalised School AI Strategy Canvas and 30-Day Leadership AI Starter Plan that draws on the artefacts produced in Weeks 1–4
