Dan Sandhu, CEO, EDT, lays out a practical, evidence‑first view of AI in education. He argues that AI must be anchored to shared educational outcomes, owned by local systems, and guided by living policies for ethics, safety, training, and leadership. Equity remains the strategic lens. AI can widen gaps when bandwidth, devices, and power are scarce, yet it can also narrow them by enabling access to national and sub‑national data on school quality, real‑time monitoring, and targeted support.
