Copilot in Schools: Privacy, Policies, Prompting Tips & the Real Limits of AI for Teachers

In this episode of Teacher’s AI Café, Kane sits down with a Western Australian Digital Technologies teacher to explore what artificial intelligence is really doing to coding, classrooms, and professional judgment. From the frustrations of AI rewriting perfectly good code to the practical realities of rolling out Microsoft Copilot in a school setting, the conversation moves beyond hype and into lived experience. They touch on data privacy, age restrictions, staff professional learning, and the growing question of whether schools should commit to a single, trackable AI platform. At its core, this episode asks a critical question for educators: how do we embrace powerful new tools while ensuring that teacher expertise, responsibility, and discernment remain firmly at the centre? 00:00 Welcome to Teacher’s AI Cafe (what this show is about) 00:24 Meet David: his teaching & edtech journey 01:37 From coding hype to AI-assisted coding in class 03:29 Vibe coding reality check: refactoring, bloat & breaking changes 06:14 Will AI replace developers?
