Insights on AI in education, curriculum alignment, and the future of learning

From laws to chips to agency: what the next wave of AI for schools is really about

There's a pattern emerging across education policy, government platforms, and the AI stack itself: we're moving from "can we use AI?" to "what should AI do, and what must it never do?"

Beyond the Hype: Navigating the Reality of AI for Schools in 2026

If there is one takeaway from the start of 2026, it is that the "pilot phase" of artificial intelligence in education is coming to an end. We are moving rapidly into an era where AI for schools is less about novelty and more about routine, infrastructure, and pedagogical strategy.

What's Actually Changing in AI for Schools in 2026 and What Matters Most

If you work in education right now, you can feel the shift. Not in a single "big bang" moment, but in a steady change to what students and teachers expect from technology.

The real story of AI for schools is literacy, equity, and what hardware makes possible

AI for schools is having a weird moment. On one hand, we're seeing real learning gains in places where traditional resources are scarce. On the other, we're watching AI slip into classrooms faster than our ability to teach students how to interpret it safely.

AI for schools is becoming a safety conversation and not just a learning conversation

AI for schools has mostly been framed as a productivity story. But the way AI behaves, the way it speaks, and the way people relate to it is quickly becoming a safety issue.

AI for schools works best when it fits the messy reality of email, trust, and how people actually get work done

It still blows my mind how much workflow is just email. If AI doesn't respect the real flow of work, it won't land. If it does, it can quietly remove the friction that wastes everyone's time.

AI for schools is moving from "cool tools" to "whole systems" and 2035 is closer than we think

A lot of my week has been one long reminder that AI is not just a feature you bolt onto a product. It's starting to change how entire systems work.

AI is everywhere at work but only a few organisations are actually transformed and that gap is the story

Most leaders say it's already making a significant impact. Most employees are using it regularly. And yet, when you look at what has actually changed inside organisations, the results are far more modest than the hype suggests.

AI for schools is being shaped right now by the choices leaders make about autonomy, safety, and trust

It feels like AI leaders are starting to speak more plainly about the scale of decisions ahead. Not "AI will change everything" in the usual hype way, but more like "we are approaching a period where we may hand real autonomy to systems we don't fully understand".

AI for schools in 2026 might be less about hype and more about friction, trust, and boundaries

Peak hype? Maybe. Macquarie Dictionary just announced "AI slop" as its word of the year. It's funny, but it also captures something real. A lot of the public conversation has shifted from wonder to fatigue.

What AI tutors mean for AI for schools and why teachers still matter

AI tutors are getting good. Like, properly good in some contexts. But the more I read, the more I'm convinced the story isn't "AI replaces teaching". It's "AI changes what teaching is for".

AI for schools won't scale on good tools alone and the real lever is leadership

One of the themes that keeps coming up for me is how easy it is to confuse access with adoption. We roll out a tool. We run a pilot. We write a policy. Then we're surprised when usage is uneven, impact is mixed, and momentum fades.

AI for schools is entering a new phase where transparency, scale, and safety have to grow together

This week felt like a mash-up of three timelines running at once. One is the deep research timeline, where labs are trying to make models more explainable and monitorable. Another is the deployment timeline, where real systems are rolling out to real students at state scale.

AI for schools is now about trust, relationships, and the new expectation of immediacy

It's not just "AI helps learning" or "AI automates tasks". It's that AI is becoming part of how students relate to information, to feedback, and sometimes even to companionship. That shifts the social texture of learning in ways we haven't had to think about at scale before.

AI for schools is moving from chatbots to context aware systems and national strategy

This week's reads felt like a reminder that "AI in education" is no longer one conversation. It's becoming a stack. At the top you've got national plans, compute, exports, and public trust. In the middle you've got foundations models, agents, and platforms.

What South Australia's EdChat results tell us about AI for schools and what the South Korea rollout warns us about

Two stories landed for me this week and they sit in tension with each other. One is South Australia's EdChat Insights Report. The other is South Korea's AI textbook experiment, which was rolled back after just four months. Same broad ambition. Very different outcome.

AI for schools is becoming a national priority and the classroom is where it gets real

A lot of the AI conversation still sounds like it lives in tech companies and venture capital decks. But the signals are getting clearer. Education and workforce development are moving to the centre of national AI strategy.

AI for schools will create better learning or better theatre and it depends what we choose to reward

When I was a child, I loved watching Bagpuss. One episode has stayed with me for years: the "chocolate biscuit machine". The mice proudly show off a marvellous contraption that turns breadcrumbs and butter beans into chocolate biscuits. Except it doesn't.

AI for schools is getting real with new rights guidance and bigger guardrails

This week felt like a reminder that AI in education has moved past the "interesting experiments" phase. We're now in the phase where systems are publishing guidance, regulators are adding rules, and school networks are rolling out tools at scale.

AI for schools is entering the ambient era

Some are flashy, like AR glasses and "agentic browsers". Some are boring-in-a-good-way, like procurement guidance and classroom guardrails. Put together, it feels like we're moving from "AI as a tool you open" to "AI as a layer that sits around you".

13 September 2025

AI for schools is forcing a reset on assessment, safety, and trust

Student AI use has grown so fast that the old assumptions about homework, essays, and "independent work" are starting to break. A lot of teachers now assume take-home essays and reports will be completed with the help of chatbots.

Dan Hart

6 September 2025

AI for schools is becoming a national project and a safety debate at the same time

The conversation about AI for schools is starting to split into two tracks that are both true. One track is optimism. Governments and big tech are launching programs to "bring AI into classrooms" and make the country more competitive. The other track is caution.

Teachers are under pressure and AI for schools needs to reduce the load, not add to it

New research from UNSW shows just how stretched Australian teachers have become. Ninety per cent are experiencing severe stress. Nearly seventy per cent say their workload is unmanageable. Rates of depression and anxiety are more than double the national average.
