AI Action Plan

Knowing AI exists isn't the same as knowing what to do about it. Most managers are stuck between "we should probably look into this" and actually deciding anything.

This plan gets you from one to the other. It maps where AI is genuinely safe to use in a setting, where it isn't, and what the difference actually depends on, the task, the data involved, the person using it. Then it compares the AI platforms your setting could realistically use, so you're choosing with a clear head, not picking whatever a staff member downloaded first.

Work through it and you'll come away with three things:

• A clear line between safe and unsafe AI use in your daily practice

• An honest comparison of the tools actually available to early years settings

• Your own action plan — specific, dated, and yours to work through
  

This isn't a general AI guide with "early years" stapled on. It's built from what actually happens in a setting, and it's designed to end in a decision, not just an opinion.
