Yes! And we’re seeing a correlation between lack of unsupervised play and higher rates of mental health challenges in children and young people. We’re well intentioned adults but sometimes we just need to let kids be kids. #EduSkyAU

Here's a crazy idea: Fund all schools to the minimum standard under Gonski FASTER, not by 2034. Delay is not neutral. It’s a political choice that deepens inequity. Let’s fast-track funding for fairness #EduSkyAU

A6. Absolutely. We don’t need more PDβ€”we need more co-design. Bring in educators, students, and even designers to reimagine learning environments. Good space design supports wellbeing, engagement, and expression. It should be a shared endeavour. #EduSkyAU

A3: A key AI skill is critical thinking. Generations are often imperfect and need editing… they take away cognitive overwhelm but are not the β€œend product”. To teach this, schools and universities must model critical reflection through multiple examples - embrace AI, not fear it. #EduSkyAu πŸ’»πŸ’­πŸ§ πŸ§‘β€πŸ«

Same, including my own daughter. Finished Y12, started Uni but learning was always a struggle, killed her self-esteem as a learnerπŸ₯²

A6. The impact of coaching or tech use isn't measured in rubricsβ€”it’s felt in culture. When students speak with more confidence, take creative risks, and challenge injustice, you know it’s working. Long-term impact shows up in the choices they make with courage. #EduSkyAU

A6 As I’ve recently moved into workplace training, there are so many young adults with low literacy (reading/writing/digitech)- knowledge of relevant AI tools is a gift #EduSkyAU

A3: Start with curiosity, not complexity. Use real-world examples relevant to students’ lives and scaffold skills over time. Co-create with students, embed culture, and ensure tools reflect diverse identities. Make AI literacy inclusive by design. #EduSkyAU
