Competition information:

The aim of this competition is to develop tools which use generative AI to support teachers with assessing progress and providing feedback, known as formative assessment. These tools must support high quality education through evidence based teaching and learning approaches. These must align with relevant standards such as the National Curriculum and Early Years Foundation Stages (EYFS). Successful applicants will have access to a quality assured library of educational content and code optimised for use with large language models.

A total of up to £994,000, inclusive of VAT, is allocated to this competition. Contracts will be between £50,000 and £200,000, inclusive of VAT, for each project for up to 5 months.

The competition will open for applications on the 9th September 2024 and then closes at 11:00am on 9th October 2024. These dates may be subject to change.

You can find more information and how to apply for the competition on the Contracts for Innovation website.
