About the researcher
My name is Zoe, I am a MA student at Keele University studying part-time. I am also a university tutor based in the UK. I am particularly interested in the development of AI in education, and the differences in the approaches to its integration amongst different sectors and organisations. There is much research exploring teachers perspectives, but limited leadership voice on the topic. To gain a holistic understanding of the strengths and challenges that AI brings to schools, leadership perspectives are required.
