In this episode of Mr F’s AI Classroom, we move beyond policy debates and bans to focus on practice.

What does explicit AI instruction actually look like in a real school, with real timetables and real students?

Mr F explores why vague or inconsistent approaches to AI create more problems than they solve, and why teaching AI as a form of literacy is essential. The episode examines where AI fits within the curriculum, the leadership role of Computing, and why AI instruction cannot sit in one department alone.

You will hear:

• What explicit AI instruction is — and what it is not
• Why AI should be treated as a form of literacy rather than a tool
• Where AI fits within the curriculum in practice
• Why Computing cannot carry AI education alone
• How a spiral approach supports understanding across Key Stage Three

This episode is for teachers and school leaders who want clarity, consistency, and practical direction when it comes to AI in education.

Welcome back to Mr F’s AI Classroom.
