On the back of 20 years of service in the public sector technology community, Shieldpoint has been set up to provide nationwide access to a network of data protection experts, helping schools build a compliance regime that's both achievable and affordable.The UK education sector faces a unique set of challenges when it comes to data protection. The quantity and range of personal data a school is responsible for is vast and complex. A school can be sharing data with a number of external agencies including local authorities, government departments, software service providers, social services and the NHS. Data subjects a school has responsibilities to include pupils, staff, parents and carers, with much of the data being classified as sensitive.We understand that school staff shouldn't be expected to double up as data protection experts. We also understand how schools work with their various stakeholder communities. That's why our compliance audits and reports are designed to produce action plans that schools are realistically able to deliver.Shieldpoint's network of data protection specialists have decades of experience advising public sector organisations like schools and local authorities on practical management and safeguarding of data. We didn't get to where we are alone. And neither will you. Call us today.
