Service
We believe that getting the most out of a school’s Management Information System (MIS) and providing teachers with accurate, up to date information at their fingertips is key to doing this.
Our Data Manager Service Level Agreements fully manage your school’s performance data, and our tools will engage all stakeholders to ensure your students make progress.
Our schools originally had onsite data managers but made the decision to move to our Data Service because our Data Team provide resilience, expertise and value for money. We even tailor the service to meet your needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often will you be onsite?
You can expect to see your DPO twice a year for routine visits (audits and training) but they will also be available whenever needed in the event of a data protection incident
Will I get remote support when they are not onsite?
Yes, your DPO will be available via phone and email when not visiting your site. You will also have access to our online portal for reporting breaches and subject access requests, logging data decisions and downloading document templates.
What about school holidays?
Our DPOs will be available to provide support both during term-time and during the school holidays.
Who can be my Data Protection Officer (DPO)?
This can be anyone who has no strategic or operational decision-making role with regards to data and data systems in your school. It doesn’t have to be a member of your own staff.
Examples of roles that are likely to not be able to be your DPO include the Headteacher, School Business Manager, Data Manager, IT Manager and most other senior leadership roles.
What does our DPO service typically include?
- Providing advice and guidance when required
- Supporting and monitoring the maintenance of data records
- Drafting data policies and procedures
- Providing training for employees
- Acting as the first point of contact with authorities
- Supporting the management of Subject Access Requests and those under the Freedom of Information Act 2000
- Supporting the management, including investigation, reporting and review, of data breach incidents
- Conducting an internal audit of your data processes up to twice a year
- Providing you with access to our specifically designed Data Protection Portal
What are the advantages of outsourcing the DPO role for my school?
Access to high-levels of expertise and banks of resources. It also gives you an impartial view of your systems, processes and practice. In the event of a data protection incident, impact on the day-to-day running of the school will be minimal as school staff can continue to carry out their roles. It is likely that this will also be a more cost effective approach than using an existing member of staff when compared to additional non-contact time, training and, possibly, a TLR. The support is also available outside normal school working hours and during the school holidays.
