Assume other senior schools must be considering this too as a way of ensuring essays are actually written by the child rather than a computer!

I would have loved some artificial intelligence to help me back in the day

How sad is this? Where is that going to end... Very scary! I must admit I am glad that my children are already done with school!

Maybe the answer is to ask the pupils to quote sources and insist they list say 10 sources in an essay and quote the source /or in part and say why it is agreeable or disagreeable to the set contention / objective. This would be introducing pupils to a standard usually not used below A-Level standard, but then again it is not an impossible hurdle and of course half the point of an  essay is to show how good you are referencing back to what you learn't in class - in other words, here your handling will show your grasp of the detail and agility to research.

(If I understand it correctly AI does NOT list it sources or there are so many it would take longer to wade through them then to write the essay without AI))

AI can do this if you instruct it to.

Handwritten work might be the only solution ?

When I was looking for a reliable resource where a nursing writer would get me out of trouble, I settled on a really professional and proven one. I heard a lot of positive comments about it from my friends. Let’s face it, when it comes to research, the importance doubles. The authors, who have extensive experience in writing scientific papers on nursing, easily coped with the academic work based on my requirements. Here I saw real professionalism in writing papers on medicine and conducting the necessary research
