If you take a teacher in any secondary school, who could have 35 years of teaching experience, I presume he or she would have huge challenges in grappling with all of this. This is totally new to such teachers. New teachers coming in directly from teacher training are very much up on tech. They have lived and been immersed in the new tech era compared with someone who is 55 or 60 years of age. I find myself to be okay on a mobile phone but the witnesses would be fields ahead of me on AI and everything like that. What are the witnesses' thoughts on those teachers with many years of experience compared with new teachers and do they see that? I do not want the witnesses to comment on any of their individual teachers, although they probably would not mind. I am interested in what they think.
