The Department for Education opened a call for evidence on 14 June 2023 asking how tools such as ChatGPT, Google Bard, Claude and Midjourney are used in education in England, and about their benefits and risks. It closed on 23 August 2023, and the department published a 44-page summary of responses with its next steps on 28 November 2023.

Teachers, schools and edtech firms in England fed the government’s later AI-in-education policy and funding decisions through this exercise.
