Teacher control, visible to students

Put the AI boundary beside the task.

Students should not have to infer the rule. Name what is allowed, what is not allowed and how any permitted use is acknowledged.

The one-line guardrail

Allowed. Not allowed. How to cite.

Write all three parts in plain language and place them with the student instructions.

AllowedName the specific stage or action where AI can support learning, such as generating search terms or checking whether wording is clear.
Not allowedName what the student must do independently, such as making the argument, analysing a source or creating the final response.
How to citeName the record required, such as tool, date, purpose, prompt, relevant output and what the student changed or verified.

Copyable pattern: AI is allowed for [specific use]. It is not allowed for [independent learning or assessed decision]. Record the tool, purpose and prompt in [process log], and verify any factual claim against a source you cite.

Privacy before prompting

Keep student and community data out

Do not paste

  • Student names, email addresses or identifiers.
  • Individual grades, feedback, behaviour or support information.
  • Unpublished student work without the approved process.
  • Photos, voices or stories that identify a person.
  • Confidential school, family or community information.

Use safer inputs

  • Invented or anonymised examples.
  • A blank rubric instead of a student’s marked work.
  • A short teacher-written sample created for the prompt.
  • Aggregate patterns with groups too large to identify anyone.
  • A school-approved tool and the minimum data needed.

Academic integrity through process

Collect evidence of the student’s decisions

A declaration alone cannot show learning. Ask for a small, relevant process trace that matches the task.

Before

Plan the use

The student names the permitted purpose and what they will still decide or create themselves.

During

Keep a useful trace

The student saves the prompt or interaction that matters, then marks claims, choices and revisions.

After

Verify and explain

The student cites sources for facts, acknowledges AI use and explains one decision that remained their own.

Tools come after the rule

Use the approved route for your class

Availability, age requirements and school settings can change. Check the current ISH guidance before asking students to use a tool, and always offer a non-AI route when required.
