About the CPD Course

This course helps school staff understand why educational settings are common targets for cyber attacks and how these incidents can affect pupils, staff, and day-to-day operations. It explains the most common threats facing schools, including phishing, ransomware, and emerging risks such as AI deepfakes. Learners will develop practical skills to protect accounts and data through strong passwords, multi-factor authentication, and safe device use. The course also explains how to recognise and respond to cyber incidents confidently, including when and how to seek support from national authorities such as the NCSC.
