Why is GDPR important in schools?

For schools, GDPR is key in keeping the personal details of students, parents, and staff safe. Schools deal with a lot of sensitive data—everything from academic records to health info. GDPR makes sure that all this data is handled in a legal and secure way.

Schools need to get clear permission to use this data and must have systems in place to protect it from being accessed by the wrong people. By following GDPR, schools not only keep this data safe but also build trust with parents and staff, showing that they take data privacy seriously.
