Outsourced data protection officer

We offer schools unique solutions that will support you with your data protection needs. We understand schools have tight budgets and, in many cases, very limited expertise in data protection, so we offer a full range of packages to suit different needs and budgets.

Benefits:

• Saves your school time, money and effort trying to interpret complex and extensive legislation
• Expert advice and guidance to hand, helping you avoid huge fines and compensation claims for data protection breaches
• Access to a highly-experienced Data Protection Officer
• Ready-made policies, guidance and templates
• Avoids the need to recruit a dedicated data protection expert or retrain (and qualify) an existing member of staff to take on the new legal duties
