🤖✨ AI literacy starts with empowering the people who inspire learning every day.

At Raffles World Academy, our staff came together for an engaging AI Literacy Training focused on using AI safely, responsibly and meaningfully in education.

From classroom guidelines and ethical AI to data, machine learning, innovation and project design, our teachers explored how AI can support learning while keeping responsibility, creativity and student wellbeing at the heart of its use. 💡

🏆 We also celebrated our AI Champs, recognising teachers who are embracing AI thoughtfully and turning new possibilities into meaningful classroom practice.

A special thank you to Ms. Nazia Choudhry, Education Technology Coordinator, for leading the training and supporting the continued growth of AI literacy across RWA. 👏

🌟 Learning. Innovating. Preparing for what’s next.

🧪✨ One drop can make all the difference!

Our Grade 10 chemists are taking precision to the next level as they put their titration skills to work. 💧🔬 Carefully adding each drop, watching for the perfect colour change and using their results to uncover an unknown concentration, this is chemistry in action!

From careful observation to confident calculations, our students are developing the skills of real scientists. 🧑‍🔬⚗️

Science isn’t just learned at RWA, it’s explored, tested and brought to life. ❤️💛
