# What MetaPet Schools Is / Is Not

## What it is

- A teacher-led classroom tool
- A short sequence for Years 3-6
- A way to teach systems thinking, digital responsibility, and online safety habits
- A low-data pilot surface with alias-based local records

## What it is not

- Not therapy
- Not counselling
- Not social media
- Not a generative AI chatbot
- Not an always-on companion
- Not a behaviour surveillance tool
- Not a student profiling system
- Not a replacement for teacher judgement

## Operating principle

The school deployment is intentionally narrower than broader MetaPet product work. School decisions should be based on the school deployment, the governance pack, and pilot evidence only.
