The Human Advantage: Teaching, Learning and Leading in a Gen AI World.

Drawing on more than 35 years across classrooms, school leadership and education consultancy, the book explores an idea I believe is becoming increasingly important:

AI hasn’t necessarily created many of the challenges schools are facing. It has exposed them.

And that creates an opportunity.

As intelligent machines become increasingly capable, education needs to place even greater value on the capabilities that make us distinctly human:

• Curiosity
• Creativity
• Critical thinking
• Empathy
• Discernment
• Ethical judgement

My new book is designed as a practical resource for teachers and school leaders. It includes strategies, classroom activities and frameworks to help educators rethink curriculum and assessment, embrace AI wisely and ethically, and keep people at the centre of learning.

Because the future of education shouldn’t be about humans competing with machines. It should be about helping young people develop the capabilities machines cannot replace.

Great teaching, now more than ever, is a deeply human endeavour.
