Has Ontario’s Ministry of Education published guidance on AI?

Its memo on mandatory professional activity days for 2026-27 makes cyber safety and artificial intelligence one of the topics every school board must cover, including the LUMI AI tool in the Virtual Learning Environment and the board’s approved AI tools. Ontario’s rules on AI in the public sector sit in the Enhancing Digital Security and Trust Act, 2024.

Do these documents apply to private schools?

Many are written for public bodies. Ontario’s O. Reg. 52/26 applies to school boards, and the Responsible Use of Artificial Intelligence Directive to Ontario ministries and provincial agencies. Alberta’s Protection of Privacy Act covers public bodies, school boards and charter schools among them. Each entry says who it is written for.

What does the US federal government say about AI in schools?

Executive Order 14277, signed April 23, 2025, made AI literacy federal policy and created the White House Task Force on AI Education. The Department of Education’s letter of July 22, 2025 confirms that grant funds may support AI uses such as instructional materials and tutoring, under principles that include being data-protective, and its April 13, 2026 priority can favour AI education in grant competitions.
