Greece sets conditions for AI tools in secondary schools

EUNOTABLEGuidanceGovernment useOnline safetyData protection

What changed

Greece's Ministry of Education, working with the Ministry of Digital Governance, adopted a Ministerial Decision setting conditions and technical and organisational measures for AI tool use in secondary education, aligned with the EU AI Act and GDPR.

Who this touches

Greek secondary schools, the AI tools used within them, and the ministries overseeing that use.

Why it matters

Secondary education now has a national rule set specifying which conditions and technical measures apply to AI tools, layered on top of the general EU AI Act and GDPR framework.

Suggested next step — and why

Schools and education technology providers operating in Greece may want to check the Decision's specific conditions against their current AI tool deployments.

The clock

Decision adopted May 2026; no further dates specified.
