Please see information from the Scottish AI Alliance (SAIA):

‘Free AI Teaching Resources for Primary Schools in Scotland

Children’s Parliament, Scottish AI Alliance, and The Alan Turing Institute are delighted to announce the launch of a comprehensive teaching pack to support teachers to educate primary school pupils (P5-7) about Artificial Intelligence (AI).

This teaching pack includes 6 lesson plans with clear learning objectives for children in P5 to P7 including:

  • Easy-to-follow and ready to use lesson plans on understanding and exploring AI in relation to children’s lived experience and their human rights
  • Real-life scenarios to explore fairness, safety and privacy
  • Animated explainer videos created by children for children
  • Tools for critical thinking, discussion and creativity

These resources can be used in a single lesson or across a whole term. No AI knowledge? No problem! Each pack includes step-by-step guidance to help you explore AI concepts with your pupils in fun and accessible ways.

Let’s give our pupils the tools to understand and shape the future of AI here:
