A school ready for Artificial Intelligence

A school ready for Artificial Intelligence

Artificial intelligence is permanently changing how we teach, learn and run schools. The law is in place, but schools still lack the guidelines and programmes to apply it. The aim of the ECAIS Foundation is to close this gap. We are creating one framework of clear rules and AI literacy for the whole educational community.

Implementation gap problem

Regulation is moving faster than practice. The EU AI Act and international frameworks set out what is expected of schools, but not how to meet it. Schools are left without practical guidelines or clear requirements.

Our solution

Our proprietary AI School Literacy Framework brings together the three areas that shape a school: its people, processes and technology. It replaces separate training, tools and rules with one coherent approach.

AI School Literacy Levels

The ECAIS AI School Literacy Framework defines the competences of the whole school community and the organisational conditions a school needs as AI enters school life.

The framework covers three areas: People, Processes and Technology. Its four levels, from AI Foundation to AI Curriculum, allow each school to see where it stands today and what its next step should be. We are developing the framework as a shared reference point for school leaders, teachers, parents and learners.

AI Foundation (Level 01) fully covers the AI literacy requirements of the EU AI Act. AI Compliance (Level 02) covers its wider compliance requirements.

A complete approach to AI School Literacy

ECAIS brings together three elements: the AI School Literacy Framework, which defines what schools and people need to know and do; educational programmes built on it; and certification that confirms the results.

The ECAIS Framework

Defines the AI knowledge, skills and attitudes needed in each role within the school community.
