AI Admissions: Your Next 100 Enrolments Are Already in Your Pipeline | How CRM, marketing and an AI agent nurture the families you already have into enrolments
Session Summary:
Independent and British international schools don't have an enquiry problem. They have a conversion problem. Families enquire, then slip through the gaps between first contact and first day. This session shows how AI Admissions, a unified CRM, marketing platform and AI agent, works as a single engine. Every enquiry gets a fast follow up that feels personal, not automated. Every lead in the pipeline is nurtured with the right message at the right moment, at scale. And your team is freed from chasing to focus on the conversations that actually enrol. Real workflows, real numbers, and a practical picture of what AI-assisted admissions looks like across every time zone.

Reading Comprehension: The Foundation of AI Readiness
Session Summary:
As artificial intelligence becomes embedded in education and everyday life, one critical question emerges: Are our students truly ready to work with AI — or are they simply using it?
In this session, we explore why reading comprehension is the essential foundation of AI readiness. While AI tools can generate answers instantly, students still need strong comprehension skills to interpret prompts, evaluate outputs, detect bias, and think critically about information.
This talk introduces BOOKR Class as a story-driven, research-based digital reading platform that strengthens comprehension through interactive texts, scaffolded vocabulary support, and adaptive assessment. By combining structured literacy development with engaging technology, BOOKR Class helps students build the deep reading skills necessary to navigate AI responsibly and effectively.
Participants will discover:
Why comprehension skills are more important than ever in the age of AI How story-based learning enhances critical thinking and information evaluation How AI-powered tools can support — rather than replace — cognitive development Practical classroom strategies to develop AI-ready readers
This session is ideal for educators and school leaders seeking to prepare students not only for exams, but for a future where understanding, questioning, and evaluating information is more valuable than ever.

Across global school systems, AI adoption is accelerating faster than policy development, leadership preparation, and instructional redesign. The result is predictable: academic integrity weakens, expectations vary from classroom to classroom, and leaders at every level are left to govern AI without a clear framework.
The real risk is not AI itself. The real risk is fragmented implementation without governance. This presentation introduces a disciplined, five-phase system for building institutional capacity for responsible AI integration in K–12 education: Assess, Align, Implement, Govern, and Sustain. At the center of this model is the Responsible AI Readiness Index, a structured diagnostic that measures governance clarity, instructional consistency, leadership confidence, student AI literacy, and system sustainability across five domains.
Whether you oversee a national education strategy or lead a single school building, the challenge is the same: how do you move from unstructured AI adoption to governed?
