Training and Consultancy Services

Effective staff training is a critical part of demonstrating a school’s compliance with data protection laws. Ensuring that all staff understand their responsibilities when handling personal data is not only a legal requirement — it is essential for protecting the rights and safety of students, families, and staff.

As part of our DPO service subscription, we provide complimentary access to two core online training modules:

  • GDPR Overview

  • Implications of Data Protection for School Staff

These self-paced modules are designed to give staff the foundational knowledge they need to handle personal data confidently and lawfully in an educational context.

In addition to this, we offer bespoke in-school or remote training and consultancy support, tailored to your specific needs. This includes:

  • GDPR and data protection training for teachers, support staff, governors, and trustees

  • Delivery to whole staff groups, governing boards, small teams, or 1:1 coaching sessions

  • Customised content aligned with your local legal framework (specifically: UK GDPR, EU GDPR, Vietnam Decree 13, Malaysia PDPA 2010, or Singapore PDPA 2021)

Each training session is uniquely designed to reflect the needs of your school. We combine a clear overview of the legal framework with practical, real-world guidance to help you:

  • Understand your data protection obligations

  • Recognise risks and avoid common pitfalls

  • Demonstrate ongoing compliance in documentation, behaviour, and culture

You do not need to be a DPO Service subscriber to access our training and consultancy services. These sessions can be arranged as standalone CPD or part of a broader compliance support package.
