From contact details to exam results, schools collect and process a large amount of personal data, which often belongs to young people and includes sensitive information. This can raise unique challenges for the education sector when it comes to protecting this data and responding effectively to situations that may compromise it.

Everyone has a responsibility for data protection so schools must ensure that everyone involved with handling personal data has the training and support that they need to get it right.
