- 01Diagnostic audit of current AI use, policy gaps, and staff confidence
- 02AI policy drafted in plain language, ready for SLT, governors, and parents
- 03Term-by-term implementation roadmap with named owners

Keynote Speaking
Your audience leaves with three ideas they can act on immediately.

Best for
Conferences, festivals, trust-wide events, and parent evenings where the audience needs to leave with something to do, not just to think about.
What’s included
- 01Custom-tailored to your audience and the time slot
- 02Three practical takeaways the audience can use the next day
- 03Q&A handled with named-classroom examples
