EtonHouse International Education Group has partnered with OpenAI to launch ChatGPT Edu, a secure enterprise-grade AI workspace across its global education network. This initiative aligns with Singapore’s national AI strategy, announced in Budget 2026, which aims to accelerate AI deployment across various sectors. The rollout extends AI integration beyond classrooms into operations, marketing, and administration, enhancing institutional capability and governance.
The AI workspace, implemented across EtonHouse’s schools and brands, including E-Bridge Pre-School, is designed to support various enterprise functions. It employs role-based access controls and single sign-on authentication to ensure secure and compliant AI usage. This governance-first approach marks a shift from isolated AI experimentation to structured, scalable adoption.
EtonHouse’s previous development of Lumina, an AI-powered lesson planning platform, laid the groundwork for this new phase of AI integration. The deployment of ChatGPT Edu allows teams to conduct structured analysis, generate reports, and enhance development workflows using OpenAI’s Codex tool. The initiative aims to augment, not replace, professional judgement, as emphasised by EtonHouse’s Group CEO, Ng Yi Xian: “AI should amplify good practice, not replace it.”
The rollout includes staff training with OpenAI experts and clear usage guidelines to ensure responsible AI deployment. As Singapore advances its AI ambitions, EtonHouse’s initiative demonstrates how educational institutions can contribute to national AI capability building. This move signals a transition to secure, scalable AI integration, reinforcing EtonHouse’s commitment to innovation and responsible deployment.
