You don’t have to take our word for it

Hear from schools and trusts like yours who have been using Secure Schools

Connor Elliott

Within just a few months, we have seen a measurable improvement in cyber resilience among staff. Cybersecurity is no longer seen as a 'back-office IT issue' but as a shared responsibility. We’ve used the platform’s tools to benchmark our progress, seeing a clear increase in the speed and frequency with which staff flags suspicious activity.



Connor Elliott

Mark Oldham

It has been one of the most useful tools we have adopted. The platform is clear, the training is practical, and the phishing simulations are easy to run. Most importantly, the impact is visible. If a school wants to raise staff awareness and build better habits quickly, this is an effective way to do it.

We have increased the resilience of our processes and policies – this helps to future-proof against changes in staffing and governance as cybersecurity is becoming firmly embedded within the culture of the Trust.

Comparison table

Cyber score

Benchmark, improve and better protect your school from common cybersecurity threats using our cyber score tool.

Phishing simulations

Simulations closely mimic real education-sector phishing emails and can be tailored by trust, school and even department.

Policy builder

Access a library of cybersecurity document templates to support your school or multi-academy trust in meeting DfE, RPA, and Cyber Essentials requirements and expectations. Researched, crafted and kept up-to-date by the Secure Schools Compliance and Certification team. You can also upload and distribute your own policies through the platform.

Awareness training

School board awareness training

Make you or your school governor knowledgeable, compliant, and ready to implement the DfE's updated standards in less than 20 minutes. Keep your learning environment safe while building a culture of awareness and resilience against digital threats.

Self-evaluation audit

Our Self-Evaluation Audit is a comprehensive questionnaire designed to help you understand your IT systems, processes, and potential cybersecurity risks. On completion, you receive a gap analysis report based on standards set by UK bodies such as the Department for Education. The self-evaluation audit will give you a series of suggestions and actions which will help you improve cyber resilience within your school or trust. Secure Schools Certified offers a range of solutions to help you match and exceed these government standards, such as phishing simulations, awareness training and policy builders.

External vulnerability scan

Test the school's offensive security by scanning and analysing vulnerabilities existing in the IT systems. Our team uses the tools that attackers use during the early stages of some attacks.

Assessor-led audit

The assessor-led audit process involves gathering comprehensive information from various sources to thoroughly understand your IT systems, processes, culture, and overall cybersecurity risk. We assess all collected data to create an in-depth report that is suitable for presentation to any stakeholder within your school or trust.

Bespoke services discount

Exclusively with our Verified tier, you will receive discounted rates on all of our cybersecurity services, such as penetration testing, tabletop exercises and one-to-one consultations.
