AI is sprinting ... and school leaders can't afford to stand still. In this straight-forward guide, international‑school veteran Rita Bateson steers you through the AI labyrinth with her signature warmth and wit. She spotlights the six risks of AI for schools (no tech waffle) and shows how to manage them using the Eblana 6P's: Preparation, Policies, People, Processes, Protection and Pedagogy. Inside you'll find quick audits, ready‑to‑use policy templates and stakeholder frameworks for teachers, students, parents, governors, tech teams, and unions-so everyone moves forward together. By the final page you'll hold a future‑proof roadmap that keeps learners safe, staff empowered and your whole community confident in an AI‑driven world. Practical, ethical, future‑proof: this is your handy confidant when you're faced with tough decisions around AI.
