AI & safety

Growing up with AI — done right

The only school in Iceland where children grow up with AI, from their first model at seven to real machine learning at seventeen — with the safeguards stated out loud.

The AI ladder — one flagship per age

Four named courses, each the AI flagship of its band, building on the one below.

Ages 7–9

How Machines Learn

Level 1 of the Explorers path, and the front door to the whole school. Kids train real models, learn how AI learns from examples, and become the family's go-to for spotting AI-made pictures — no chatbots, all hands-on.

Ages 10–12

AI Trainers

The band's front door. Train it, wire it into a project, then break it on purpose. Kids build real machine-learning models and learn exactly how AI works — and where it fails.

Ages 13–15

AI Makers

The band's front door and flagship. How AI really works, how to build with it, and how to train your own — including a model trained on real Icelandic data, graded honestly.

Ages 16–18

AI Engineer

Real machine learning for 16–18s: train and evaluate models in Python, build LLM-powered applications, and meet the frontier where it speaks Icelandic.

The thread

AI runs through every course

The flagships go deep; every other course carries the thread too.

Account-free under 13

Younger children learn how AI works with account-free tools and teacher-led demos. No chatbots, no logins.

Build, never lecture

Every bit of AI literacy is delivered by making things — training a model, breaking it, building an app — not by watching slides.

In every course

Beyond the four flagships, an AI thread runs through every course — from "is this real or generated?" to "disclose your AI use".

Our under-13 AI policy, stated plainly

No chatbots under 13 — full stop. Younger children use account-free tools only. At 13+, with signed parental consent, students use school-managed, capped AI accounts and learn the honest way to use AI for schoolwork: as a tutor that explains and checks, never as a ghostwriter.

For parents

New to all this? You're not behind.

Most parents are figuring out AI at the same time their children are. Our courses are designed so you can follow along — and Family AI Night (coming soon) lets you experience the same labs your child does. The fuller parent guide will live here.

AI & safety questions

Will my under-13 use ChatGPT or other chatbots?

No. Under-13s never use chatbots here. They train their own models with account-free tools and learn the mechanics — understanding before access.

When do students get real AI accounts?

At 13+, and only with your signed consent, on school-managed and capped access. The consent and classroom-use agreement is part of enrolment.

Are you teaching kids to cheat with AI?

The opposite. We teach the difference between AI as a tutor and AI as a ghostwriter, with class rules students help write and showcases that make authorship visible.

Is this just AI hype?

No — by the end of a flagship course, students have trained and evaluated real models, or built and shipped real AI applications. They make things most adults only talk about.
