Data Privacy Day is celebrated on 28th<\/sup> January every year, so to join in with the celebrations, we asked our schools for their top tips about the importance of Data Protection in schools:<\/h4>\n

\u201cDon\u2019t go it alone. Develop a positive culture in school around data protection \u2013 encourage staff to be curious, but don\u2019t frighten them. Encourage open and honest lines of communication. Above all, if in doubt ask! Use the highly skilled individuals in the EDH team to ask for help \u2013 I do it all the time! We can\u2019t expect to be experts ourselves so ask the experts instead!\u201d\u00a0 Catherine Robinson, Stonelow Junior School.
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cIt MUST be taken seriously. Look at your emails \u2013 having a lax attitude about how we receive, respond to and store communication is one of the ways that we could sleepwalk into loads of bother. And stop saving passwords!!\u201d\u00a0 Rebecca Fenby, Hady Primary School.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe small things matter. Keeping data secure and now only writing what is essential makes a huge difference to the possibility of a data breach and therefore of keeping ourselves and our data protected.\u201d\u00a0 Sarah Bentley, Etwall Primary School.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cPasswords are king. Approach any data with \u2018fresh eyes\u2019 and treat all data you handle as if it is your own data.\u201d \u00a0Tim Cocking, Eckington Camms Primary School.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cThe most important lesson for me is around pupil data and safety. Having started my teaching career over 20 years ago, there were many practices I followed because I knew they worked or that was how it was always done! Looking at how easy it was for someone to gain information about a pupil from a book cover or a school tracker made me rethink how information should be presented and shared in school.\u201d\u00a0 Prince Regent Street Trust.<\/em><\/p>\n
