The platform has been built specifically for secondary and higher education computing classrooms and is not a general-purpose AI tool.
AI features are designed to support learning, not replace teaching. Teachers control how and when AI is used in their classroom, ensuring it aligns with lesson objectives, safeguarding requirements, and school policies.
To support safe use in classrooms, Kita includes additional safeguards:
• The chatbot is designed not to emulate a human
• Teacher alerts for potentially concerning or unsafe content
• No student data is used to train AI models
• Personally identifiable information is removed or anonymised where applicable
Kita is built with safety, ethics, and compliance at its core, including:
• Teacher-controlled AI settings and visibility
• GDPR-compliant data handling
• UK-hosted infrastructure
• Cyber Essentials Plus-certified systems
• Alignment with UK Department for Education guidance on AI in education
• Accessibility-focused design principles
We are committed to transparency, safeguarding, and ensuring AI is used ethically, safely, and in ways that support learning.
