AI Governance Self-Check

Where does your school actually stand?

Twenty questions. Fifteen ask whether your school is protected; five ask whether AI is actually doing anything for teaching and learning. You get two scores, not one. About six minutes. You get a score and a profile immediately.

Answer as the person accountable for AI at your school. If your honest answer to most of these is “I don’t know”, that is a legitimate answer and it is worth recording — not knowing is itself the finding this exercise exists to surface.

Is it serving learning yet?

Three scores, never averaged. A school can be strong on one and weak on another, and the failures look nothing alike — so a single number would hide the one thing worth knowing.

What I would do next

This follows from your own answers, not from what we would like to sell you. Both axes are always measured together — the finding is the quadrant, not either score. See what the Review covers →

Readiness — can your people use it?

Seven dimensions. Each scored 0–5, coloured by maturity band.

Governance — can the institution be responsible for it?

Nine dimensions. IT Infrastructure & Security appears in both — capacity to run the system is readiness; control over who reaches it is governance.

Practice — is it serving learning yet?

Five dimensions. A school can be capable and well governed and still getting nothing back.

Where I would start

    Do this next — it takes fifteen minutes

    Open the AI Exposure Scan

    Drop in an export you already have — a web-filter report, your OAuth app list, or software spend. It runs entirely in your browser, nothing is uploaded, and it tells you which AI tools are actually in use. Its output feeds straight into the baseline kit below.

    This was a self-check. The real baseline needs your whole school.

    You just answered for yourself. A defensible baseline triangulates staff, students, leadership, IT and parents against evidence a reviewer can actually see — which is what a board will ask for.

    The full Baseline Assessment Kit is free. It contains:

    • Six questionnaires — staff, student, leadership, IT/DPO, parent, and the educational-value module (205 items)
    • The AI tool inventory, with five discovery methods for shadow use
    • A 31-artefact evidence checklist
    • The scoring model — two axes reported separately, red flags and green flags
    • The interpretation guide — eleven failure patterns and six strength patterns
    • Invitations, privacy notice, and a student assent script
