What this course delivers
Build a safe, accountable AI governance framework
This Leader-level certification prepares principals, coordinators, HODs, IT administrators and school management — across ethics and children's rights, bias and inclusion, privacy and data protection, safety and safeguarding, content review, integrity, classroom-use policy, institutional policy, vendor due diligence, risk and incident response — with accountable human oversight at the centre of every AI decision. Educational guidance, not legal advice.
Ground every institutional AI decision in the best interests of the child, human agency, non-maleficence, accountability and proportionality — deciding yes, no or only-if against clear principles.
Protect student data across its lifecycle, recognise safety and safeguarding risks, and review AI-generated content with the VERIFY method — no identifiable student data ever enters a public AI tool.
Draft an institutional responsible-AI policy, define accountability with a RACI model, and evaluate vendors and contracts with a due-diligence scorecard — governance you can defend to the management committee.
Every module builds a governance artifact — a data map, a risk register, an incident plan, a policy, a roadmap — that assembles into a defensible School Responsible AI Governance Portfolio.
What you'll build
Every module builds a practical governance artifact, and you graduate with a defensible School Responsible AI Governance Portfolio — these sixteen sections — scored on a fourteen-criterion analytic rubric.
Educational guidance, not legal advice — have the policy reviewed by a qualified professional before adoption.
