A whole school AI maturity model for K-12 schools
The Canadian Accredited Independent Schools (CAIS) is a community of independent schools who choose to meet and exceed rigorous National Standards that inspire continuous whole school improvement.
This session introduces the CAIS AI Maturity Model for K-12 schools, designed to assess AI readiness and support ethical, strategic implementation. Participants will explore practical applications across nine standards, including teaching, infrastructure, ethics, strategy, and privacy, and learn to use the model to guide next steps for integration. The tool was created over the last year by AI specialists in schools across Canada and has had a preliminary release to all Canadian independent schools during the summer of 2024. By attending, educators gain actionable insights, access a free, customizable tool available on the CAIS website, and engage in discussions to enhance AI literacy and innovation in education.
