Reminder to schools: don’t post pupils’ photos #GCSEResults2025 on social media today — there’s no need, and its risks should be assessed and documented as part of your #safeguarding duties @Ofstednews ⚠️ Why? defenddigitalme.org/2024/01/28/cal… ‼️The status quo defenddigitalme.org/wp-content/upl…

The best single source of information about #GCSEResults2025 today is on BBC Bitesize including links to grade boundary data bbc.co.uk/bitesize/artic… — but why is there no single source incl on standardisation on the results slip itself for each candidate? defenddigitalme.org/2021/12/04/res…
Whatever the #Alevels2025 exam results bring today, we believe everyone should be able to understand how their own grade was calculated. We call on @ofqual to work with exam boards and @JCQcic to give each candidate a written explainer #MyRecordsMyRights defenddigitalme.org/2021/12/04/res…
We’ve a serious suggestion—government Departments should audit admin data stores, delete unnecessary history, retain statistics. And on process costs: DfE’s 23,000 schools census 3x a year, could be massively reduced alone, by sending only field changes, not duplicating records.

Katherine Rundell on @BBCr4today would wave a magic wand to reverse the loss of school libraries. Only 1 in 7 primaries have one - only 1 in 4 in the most economically deprived areas. She adds they should be staffed by a librarian and assessed via Ofsted. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
It's time for a break. Wishing everyone in and beyond the state education sector in England, a restful, reinvigorating summer holiday. Back in a month. (By when we expect to know more about what needed fixed in 2020 by DfE managing millions of our #records ⬇️). #DataProtection
