Britain’s digital edge in education
Not only are UK parents the most likely to see significant benefits in online learning, the UK is also leading the way on the use of AI by students in a learning context, including language learning.
A note from Felix Ohswald
Education in 2025 is at a critical juncture with AI rewriting the rules. It’s clear that the traditional methods of teaching and assessment are no longer sufficient to prepare students for the challenges and opportunities of tomorrow’s world.
At GoStudent, we believe technology is not a threat but an enabler. AI tools hold immense promise for personalising education, including supporting students with special needs, and empowering teachers to focus on meaningful interactions rather than administrative tasks.
Education is not just about adapting to technology; it’s about leveraging it to create a system that nurtures every child’s full potential. Together, with governments, educators, parents, and private sector partners, we can build a future where learning is inclusive, personalised, and equipped to tackle the complexities of our modern world.
