Nairobi Academy: Transforming Learning with AI Ethics

Nairobi, Kenya
May 2026

The Challenge

Nairobi Academy noticed a growing trend of students using AI to generate essays and solve math problems without understanding the underlying concepts. Teachers were struggling to differentiate between genuine work and AI-generated content, and academic integrity was at risk.

The Solution

The school partnered with Safenet to implement a comprehensive AI literacy program. This included:

  • Teacher training workshops on identifying AI use and teaching with AI.
  • Student workshops on AI ethics and 'responsible prompting'.
  • Implementation of the Safenet Integrity Dashboard to track learning progress.

The Results

After just one term, Nairobi Academy saw significant improvements:

40%
Reduction in shortcut-seeking
95%
Teacher confidence in AI tools
88%
Student engagement in AI ethics
"Safenet didn't just give us a tool; they gave us a framework to talk about the future of education. Our students are now using AI to deepen their understanding, not just to finish their homework."
— Head of Secondary, Nairobi Academy
