AI implementation for primary and SEND schools
Turn informal AI use into safe, confident, whole-school practice.
We help schools use AI where it genuinely saves time and improves practice, while putting the right safeguards around where it doesn't belong.
Human-led. AI-assisted. Evidence-informed.
Book a 20-minute callNo obligation, just a conversation about where your school actually is with AI right now.
AI is already happening in your school
Most schools we speak to already have staff using AI in some form. The problem usually isn't the technology: it's not knowing what's actually happening, where the pressure points are, and how to give staff real confidence rather than a list of rules.
"We don't know what everyone is doing."
Risk
Staff are experimenting individually, often without shared understanding of what's safe to put into an AI tool and what isn't.
"We're under enormous pressure."
Workload
Planning, resourcing, admin and communication all take time staff don't have, and generic advice rarely translates into real time back.
"Staff ability is all over the place."
Confidence
A handful of enthusiasts are experimenting while others hold back, unsure what's expected of them or where the boundaries are.
Implementation, not just another INSET day
Generic AI literacy is becoming free. The DfE, major tech providers and low-cost frameworks already cover the basics. Home Time exists for the harder part: turning knowledge into safe, embedded, whole-school practice.
Primary and SEND specialists
Built around primary school realities and SEND practice specifically, not a generic "all education settings" offer.
Implementation, not information
We go beyond a single training day into embedding workflows staff actually keep using afterwards.
Governance built in
Safeguarding, data protection and appropriate use sit at the centre of every session, not as an afterthought.
Vendor-neutral
We don't sell an AI platform. We help your school decide what it actually needs.
Start with a whole-staff session
A practical entry point for schools wanting to move from scattered individual AI use to a shared, confident starting point, with a clear path into deeper implementation support if it's useful.
AI Without The Hype
A 2-hour whole-staff CPD session: what AI can genuinely help with, what it can't, and the boundaries every member of staff should know.
£695£395
Founding-schools rate for the first five schools booked. Standard rate applies after.
Foundations CPD Programme
Four further sessions building on "AI Without The Hype": safe workflows, planning and resourcing, SEND and differentiation, and a personal implementation plan for every member of staff.
£1,995
A genuine saving on booking sessions individually, for schools ready to go further than a single day.
Why Home Time
I trained as a primary teacher at Liverpool John Moores University, qualifying with an outstanding grade for my teaching practice and a genuine love for the classroom. After several years working across primary schools, I was made permanent in a secondary SEN school, working with pupils with severe learning difficulties, an experience that has shaped how I think about education, and about SEND, ever since.
Over the following five years, the workload, bureaucracy and mounting expectations gradually wore that love for teaching down, until I made the difficult decision to leave the classroom for a different career.
I genuinely believe that if the AI tools available today had existed then, I would still be teaching, with a proper work-life balance, better resources, faster planning, stronger organisation, and better outcomes for the children in my care. That's what Home Time is built to do: help teachers, teaching assistants and SLT teams use AI to reclaim their time and reduce the pressures that wear good staff down, without ever compromising the standard of education pupils receive.
Every session is built around UK safeguarding and data protection expectations from the outset, not bolted on afterwards. The goal is never AI for its own sake. It's staff capacity, confidence and consistency, with AI as the mechanism rather than the point.
