A little less talk, a lot more action
Enough with the endless surveys, webinars and reports.
Is your school as secure as it needs to be?
Meet DfE and NCSC cyber-security standards without a large budget.
Cyberattacks on schools are rising
A limited budget doesn’t have to mean limited protection. We help you meet DfE and NCSC standards step by step.
Know where your school stands
Find your gaps, fix what matters most, and give your staff the confidence to act.
Here’s what sets us apart
CyberSafeSchools bridges the gap between awareness and implementation. We offer a straightforward way to help your school meet DfE and NCSC cyber-security standards, without the overwhelm.
What we offer
Actionable approach
Our easy-to-use platform simplifies complex NCSC cyber-security tools, making them accessible and manageable for your staff.
Student engagement
Students help schools get secure. Secondary pupils join us on work experience; college students help schools in their college’s area, often the school they came from.
Cost-effective
We understand the financial pressures on schools. Our platform uses the NCSC’s free tools, keeping the cost of putting them in place low.
What we have done with schools
Our 2023 cyber-resilience pilot gave each school a governors’ report with a security score and recommendations, on-site staff awareness training, and checks across the schools’ email and web domains.

Working with student teams
Some of our work is carried out by student teams under our supervision. Students help with awareness, policy drafting, self-assessment and training materials.
- They do not log in to your systems or see your staff or pupil records.
- A CyberSafeSchools supervisor reviews everything before it reaches you.
- Your supervisor stays your single point of contact.
