What we learned talking to Educators about AI, and why you’re ahead just by reading this

June 03, 2025Posted by: Sarra

We thought AI would be the problem.

What we didn’t expect was how much people were waiting for the right way to say yes.

In every FE conversation we've had, from staffrooms to strategy meetings, it was clear: People weren’t overwhelmed by AI. They were underprepared by everyone else. That’s why our Safe Use of AI in Education course exists, a practical FE-specific course designed and delivered by LearningPlus.

And right now, it’s exactly what Learning Week was made for.

The conversations told us everything we needed to know

Here’s what we kept hearing:

“I’ve no idea what counts as plagiarism anymore.”
“We’ve got no AI policy, but students are using it every day.”
“We want to get started, but we need help, not hype.”

That’s not resistance. That’s readiness, waiting for structure.

So we built it.

If this sounds like your staffroom: You’re not behind. You’re on the edge of getting it right.
If you’ve read this far: You’re already ahead of most. Let’s make it count.

This isn’t another AI course. It’s what your institution actually needs

Forget theory. Forget “future of work”. Safe Use of AI in Education is a ready-to-use course, purpose-built for Further Education settings.

Role-specific learning paths for staff
Practical tools: lesson planning, grading support, AI study literacy
Policy templates aligned with Ofsted and GDPR
Real-world examples for real-world FE teams

It’s not about learning what AI is. It’s about knowing exactly how to use it, today.

Customising Instruction – Adapt learning materials to students' unique learning styles and needs using tools like ChatGPT and Brisk Teaching.
Intelligent Tutoring Systems – Provide students with AI-powered tutors that offer real-time feedback and support, reinforcing classroom learning with Zapier.
Automatic Grading – Save time by streamlining the grading process using AI tools such as Formative.

By the end of the course, you will have a comprehensive understanding of how AI can enhance teaching, making learning more effective and efficient for both educators and students.

And yes, you can demo it live, no strings.

Learning Week: You couldn’t have timed this better

This isn’t something we launched for Learning Week. It’s something we made sure was ready for it. Because we knew this would be the moment FE teams would finally pause long enough to look for something better.

So we’re here. Available. Present.

Whether that’s:

Live demos for your teams
Hands-on walkthroughs
Quick discovery calls
Resources you can take straight into your next staff meeting

We’ll meet you where you are and help you get where you’re already trying to go.

This is how you stay ahead of the curve, quietly and convincingly

There’s no badge for early adoption. But your learners, your staff, your stakeholders, they’ll feel it when you make the right moves before you have to.

AI in FE is no longer optional. But how you adopt it still is.

Right now, the people who take this seriously will be the ones others turn to later.

Want to be that person for your college?
Want to be the department that got it right before it got messy?

You don’t need to decide right now. But you do need to see this.
