Honest AI training for teachers in Kenya that protects the learner's own work.

A workshop for classroom teachers and school staff. Prepare lessons faster, set work AI cannot do alone, and keep every learner's details safe.

3,000+ people trained since 2022, including University of Nairobi postgraduates.

How can teachers in Kenya use AI without harming academic integrity?

AI training for teachers in Kenya should show teachers how to use AI for planning and preparation, and how to keep every assessed piece of work truly the learner's own. FuKazee can run a practical workshop on both for your school's teaching staff.

The line matters most at assessment. Education press reported in September 2026 that KNEC had warned against using AI to complete or assist School-Based Assessment tasks meant to show a learner's own competencies. The same reports said this was no blanket ban on teachers using AI for lesson preparation, administration or research. Always follow KNEC's latest instructions for each task.

This page is for teachers. If you are setting AI policy for a whole university or college, see our page on AI training for education, which is written for institutions. Here we stay in the classroom: Monday's lesson, Tuesday's worksheet, and the learner whose essay suddenly sounds nothing like them.

What teachers practise in the workshop.

Most of this is preparation time given back. The rest is about keeping learning honest.

Lessons from your curriculum design

Start from the strand, sub-strand and specific learning outcomes in your KICD design. AI may not know them, so you paste them in.

Questions and marking guides

Draft practice questions at different levels with a marking guide. You check every answer, because AI does make mistakes in Maths and Science.

One class, many levels

Rewrite a passage for learners who are struggling, and add a harder task for those who finish early.

Work AI cannot do alone

Redesign assignments around local observation, drafts done in class, and short oral explanations.

Report comments and parent notes

Turn your own observations into clear wording, using initials only. What you know about the child is the valuable part.

Learner data

Names, marks, health details and home situations stay out of public tools. Schools hold this data under the law.

Try this today: redesign a take-home assignment

You set a take-home task and half the answers came back in the same smooth style. Instead of playing detective, change the task so a learner has to bring something only they can bring. Use this for class work, never on a KNEC assessment tool.

Try this prompt

You are helping a secondary school teacher in Kenya improve a take-home assignment so that learners must show their own thinking. This assignment is for classroom practice and is not a KNEC assessment. Class and subject: [for example, Grade 10 Agriculture] The learning outcome, copied from my curriculum design: [paste] Current assignment: [paste] 1. Show how a learner could complete the current version with AI and learn nothing. 2. Redesign it so the learner must use something only they can get: an observation at home or in the community, a draft written in class, or a short oral explanation to me. 3. Give a four-level marking rubric that rewards reasoning as well as the final answer. 4. Write two sentences for learners saying what help from AI is allowed and how to declare it. Keep it possible for learners with no phone or internet at home.

Before you use the answer: Compare the new task against your curriculum design, and confirm that it still tests the outcome. Try the rubric on one real script. Check that a learner in the most difficult home situation could still do it.

Practical details for schools and teachers.

Schools differ widely in devices and connectivity, so we plan around what you actually have.

  1. 01

    Who should attend

    Classroom teachers, heads of department, deputy principals and school administrators, across primary, junior and senior school.

  2. 02

    Both systems at once

    Many schools now run Competency Based Education for Grade 10 alongside Form 3 and Form 4 classes preparing for KCSE. We work with whichever you teach.

  3. 03

    AI detectors

    A Stanford study from 2023 found seven AI detectors wrongly flagged many essays by non-native English writers. A detector score alone should never be used to accuse a learner.

  4. 04

    Learner privacy

    The ODPC issued a Guidance Note for the Education Sector in December 2023. It warns against sharing academic, behaviour or health details on parents' WhatsApp groups. Section 33 of the Data Protection Act covers children's data.

  5. 05

    Devices and data

    Phones and shared laptops can work. We teach text-first exercises and show the free version of each tool, with Microsoft 365 and Copilot where the school has them.

  6. 06

    Where and when

    At your school by arrangement anywhere in Kenya, or live online. Our base is HackHouse, Westlands, and dates are agreed with you.

The seven modules your team can draw from.

We adapt the examples to your work, and you can run any module on its own.
Module 1

Understanding AI

The groundwork for adopting AI responsibly across your organisation.

Module 2

Prompt Engineering

Role prompts, few-shot examples and clearer instructions for better output.

Module 3

Best Practices and Verification

Token awareness, output checks and prompt libraries that keep quality high.

Module 4

Navigating the AI Landscape

Hands-on with ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, Perplexity, Copilot and others.

Module 5

Tool Comparison and Evaluation

A way to choose tools without falling for vendor hype or lock-in.

Module 6

AI Agents and Workflow Optimisation

AI for reports, communication, research, document analysis and workflow redesign.

Module 7

AI Ethics, Risk, and Responsible Use

Data leakage, hallucinations, bias, prompt injection and policy design for real organisations.

What kind of organisation is this for?

Questions about aI training for teachers in Kenya.

Short answers. Anything else, ask us on WhatsApp and a person replies.

Is there an AI workshop for teachers in Kenya?

Yes. FuKazee can run a live AI workshop for a school's teaching staff, at the school by arrangement or online. We plan it with the school around what teachers actually need.

Is it cheating if a teacher uses AI to plan a lesson?

Generally no. Reports on KNEC's warning separate planning from assessed work. It stays your lesson if you check it against the curriculum design and adapt it to your learners.

A learner's essay looks AI-written. What should I do?

Talk with the learner first. Ask them to explain their argument, or to write a short piece in class. Compare it with their earlier work. Avoid accusing anyone on the basis of a detector alone.

Should learners use AI at all?

That is for each school to decide, ideally in writing. Many tools set minimum ages and need parental permission for younger users, so check the terms before asking learners to sign up.

Can I put learners' names and marks into ChatGPT?

No. Use initials or numbers, or leave them out. In a case involving images of minors, the ODPC has fined a school, which shows children's data is taken seriously.

Can AI mark my scripts?

It can suggest feedback on anonymised work for classroom practice. Final marks stay with you. Never use it on national assessments unless KNEC's instructions clearly allow it.

Do teachers get a certificate?

When a programme includes one, teachers with at least 75% attendance receive a FuKazee certificate of completion. It is not a government or NITA qualification, and it should not be presented as one.

I am a teacher working on a Master's. Is there something for me?

Yes. The ScholarShift Accelerator is a live online programme for postgraduates at KES 20,000, and the next cohort is February 2027. Teachers who want private sessions can ask about one-to-one training on WhatsApp.
