School Surveillance Scenario

A staff-ready school surveillance scenario for AI policy discussions about privacy, safety, trust, evidence, and school community values.

A school considers an AI surveillance system. Participants test policy claims against student trust, privacy risk, safety goals, and accountability requirements.

How should a school balance safety, privacy, trust, and evidence when considering AI surveillance?

Educator PD and grades 9-12

35-50 minutes

Identify competing values in school surveillance decisions.

Evaluate whether evidence supports the proposed intervention.

Draft guardrails or refusal criteria for surveillance tools.

Avoid treating privacy and safety as automatic opposites; ask what evidence exists for both.

Name trust as a school condition, not just a feeling.

This works especially well for leadership teams drafting AI procurement norms.
