Rethinking Assessment: AQA and AI Assessment Latest Thinking

Welcome to the Rethinking Assessment Practice Network!

New for 2026! The RA Practice Network is free for all schools and colleges and provides access to a programme of online events throughout the academic year, designed for teachers, lecturers, leaders and practitioners who want to explore what is possible in the world of assessment.

Our aim is to convene a space for inspirational big picture thinking, together with practical support and strategies to build staff confidence and understanding.

This session: Mon April 20th 4-5pm

'AI and Assessment: What do we need to know?'

As part of the Network’s strand on AI and assessment Dr Chinwe Njoku Education Insights Lead, Dr Cesrae Aloisi, Head of AI for Assessment Innovation and Graham Dwyer, Group Data Protection & AI Ethic Governance Lead will share the latest research and developments. 

The session will explore essential considerations for teachers and schools leaders around the ethics and equity of AI in digital assessment. They will share opportunities, benefits and what is possible  alongside considering risks and essential considerations to ensure safe and ethical use. Recordings will only be sent to those who attend, as space is limited.

What is the network? Sponsored by AQA, the RA Practice Network offers a curated programme of expert voices on assessment methods, assessment design for skills, and AI in assessment, together with teachers and school leaders sharing the current working projects.

How does it work?

• Book on to any of the free online sessions to access 30 mins expert input
• You can stay on the call for the following discussion and Q&A, to connect with like-minded schools/colleges and colleagues to consider how to develop the work further in your context.
