Independent School

A request was received from Ditchum Park School, to help with GDPR implementation and training of all staff.

The school has a dedicated data privacy team but there was a requirement for additional support and cross over from Data Protection 1998 to the new General Data Protection Regulation and Data Protection Act 2018. With a program of targeted training and consultancy we were able to provide an education specific program for the school including:

• SLT awareness training
• Gate keeper training
• All staff briefing
• Chief Privacy Officer training 2 Days
• Progress check

The project was delivered over several visits and organised around the availability of staff in order to reduce impact on teaching.
