When to use it

Use when the Victorian Institute of Teaching has asked a current or former employer for information during a preliminary assessment or investigation.

Used for these tasks

Each task page says how far AI may help with the task and what the lawyer must review.

How AI may be used

The tool drafts the reply from documents the lawyer marks as answerable, and the lawyer checks the reply against the request before it is sent.

AI may

  • List the questions in the Institute's request and the document titles the lawyer matches to each question.
  • State the notification duties in the words of the Institute's page, as a checklist beside the reply.
  • Say which questions are answered, and which documents are enclosed.

AI must not

  • Do not draft a statutory declaration or an affidavit.
  • Do not define a Category A offence or a Category B offence. The glossary was not opened.
  • Do not admit misconduct, incompetence or unfitness.

The lawyer checks

  • Answer only what the request asks, unless a separate notification duty on the page has already arisen.
  • The page says the employer must provide any information the Institute may reasonably require for an investigation. It does not set a day count.
  • The Education and Training Reform Act 2006 was not opened. The duties below are as the Institute's page states them.

Method: how the Green, Yellow and Red levels are decided. This is guidance for planning, not legal advice.
