Annex III expert page
Education AI affects admission, assessment and learning paths. Classification must therefore match the actual influence on students or learners.
Check whether your EdTech, assessment or student monitoring falls under Annex III point 3.
Annex III point 3
Annex III point 3 is broader than schools. The guidelines cover formal and non-formal education, vocational training, adult education and programmes that may provide certificates.
Does the AI influence a natural person’s learning path, assessment or access?
AI that determines access to an education or training programme, or assigns a person to a learning path.
AI that evaluates performance, assignments, exams or competencies.
AI that assesses the level of education someone will receive or can access.
AI that monitors or detects prohibited student behaviour during tests.
Short answers for classification, evidence and next steps under Annex III.
Expert review is useful when the core question is not straightforward: Does the AI influence a natural person’s learning path, assessment or access? This is especially relevant when the outcome may affect access, assessment, safety, oversight or fundamental rights.
A classification intake maps the intended purpose, Annex III route, Article 6(3) filter, profiling, provider/deployer roles and the first evidence items.
This page provides general explanation based on the AI Act and the Commission guidelines. Concrete classification depends on system design, use context, role allocation and available documentation.
