Cybersecurity training for school staff

Course Overview

Cybersecurity is a critical responsibility for everyone working in a school. As schools become increasingly reliant on digital systems, staff play a vital role in protecting sensitive information, maintaining operational continuity, and reducing the risk of cyber incidents. This mandatory Certified CPD course provides practical guidance on the most common cyber threats facing schools, including phishing, ransomware, password attacks, data breaches, and insider risks. Participants will learn how cyber incidents occur, understand their role in safeguarding school systems and data, and develop the confidence to recognise and respond to potential threats. Based on real-world school case studies, the course promotes a culture of cyber awareness and resilience across the entire school community.
