Why Schools need Ignition
Students already use AI, often without fully understanding its limitations.
Schools need a way to teach AI literacy without overburdening staff.
Ignition offers a safe pathway for teaching AI literacy to 13 to 18-year-olds, while providing clear progression and necessary safeguards.
How Ignition supports AI literacy
Ignition helps students learn how AI works, how to use it responsibly, how to recognise poor or biased outputs, and when to question or override what AI produces.
