Newsletter from 18th December 2025With apologies - for some reason this didn't display properly in Jotter when it was uploaded on the last day of term. It does display correctly on the website, but for anyone who would rather see it in Jotter, we are re-uploading it today. Although some of the information is now out of date, there is information which you will need for this half term as well.
Hopefully normal service will resume this Friday! - 18 Dec 2025

National College Weekly updateAI-driven toys are becoming increasingly common, offering children personalised interactions that can feel surprisingly lifelike. This guide unpacks how these toys listen, learn, and respond – and what that means for privacy, security, and healthy development. From data collection to the subtle influence of artificial voices, it highlights why adults may need to look more closely at the tech inside modern playthings.
Alongside outlining the risks, this guide shares calm, practical advice to help parents and educators set boundaries, check permissions, and balance AI toys with offline experiences, ensuring AI remains a support for real-world interactions, not a substitute for them.
