🚀 Big news! Our CEO, Al Kingsley, was just featured on The EDiT Spotlight by EDT&Partners!

In an in-depth conversation, Al cuts through the media noise and negative headlines surrounding EdTech to share what’s actually happening on the ground in schools across the globe. Here are 🏢 EdTech is bigger than the classroom: Over 50% of school tech operates behind the scenes (like infrastructure and student info systems), driving efficiency, safety, and reduced workloads.

🤝 Co-production is king: The most impactful tools are built with schools, not just sold to them. It’s about building a long-term relationship, not a transaction.

🤖 AI Literacy is the new Digital Citizenship: Forward-thinking schools are already preparing for future frameworks (like PISA 2029) by teaching students to use AI responsibly as a research partner, without taking away critical thinking.

🎒 True inclusion uses tech: From screen readers to assistive tools, technology is the ultimate equalizer- and true inclusion means making these tools native for all students, not just some.

Could AI "friends" sabotage real-world social skills? 🤖💔

A third of young UK chatbot users now view AI as a friend. Because these bots offer constant validation and zero conflict, young people are finding real-world human relationships increasingly frustrating and experiencing disagreements or reading non-verbal cues, the next generation risks losing vital social skills. We must help youth understand that while real relationships take effort, they are irreplaceable.
