GDPR in a Nutshell

This course will provide you with an overview and supporting resources regarding GDPR legislation. The GDPR significantly changes the way every school collects, manages and stores data in school and failure to comply will result in large fines.

This training course will ensure all school staff are equipped with the essential knowledge and information about what the GDPR means to them as individuals, and what whole-school changes need to be implemented.

Units 3 and 4 of the course provide the school leadership team with valuable practical resources to ensure every school is GPDR-compliant.
