EU GDPR Gap Assessment Tool for Schools

The EU GDPR Gap Assessment Tool for schools is a version of our popular EU GDPR Compliance Gap Assessment Tool that has been tailored for schools. The tool will help schools assess their current stance against the GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) and establish areas for development. We have amended the terminology to be more school-specific and changed the roles and responsibilities to reflect the school environment. There are two main areas within the tool: Questions about the GDPR to help create the next steps for compliance. Help to identify processes that involve personal data. The questions have been grouped into sections: Governance Risk management GDPR project The DPO (data protection officer) Roles and responsibilities Scope of compliance Process analysis PIMS (personal information management system) ISMS (information security management system), 'integrity and confidentiality' (Principle 6) and Article 32 Rights of data subjects These questions should provide your school with a high-level, colour-coded analysis of its state of GDPR compliance. The tool is in Microsoft Excel format and will work in any Microsoft environment. You don't need to download any other software, but you will need basic knowledge of the GDPR and the processes within your school. The tool is not designed for conducting a detailed and granular compliance assessment.
