The proposal would provide $20 million over 4 years to:

• establish an AI Advisory Board within the Department of Education, including teachers' unions and student representatives, to oversee AI implementation in schools and ensure safeguards are implemented
• develop AI literacy and training programs for teachers, students, carers and support staff through the Advisory Board guidance
• empower students as digital citizens by including their voices in AI-related decision-making processes
• put in place safeguards on the use of AI technologies in education to protect students' privacy, safety and development.

The proposal would be non-ongoing, distribute funding evenly over 4 years and start on 1 July 2026.
