Training for School Staff

Free cyber security training to raise awareness and help school staff manage some of the key cyber threats facing schools.

The training is available in two formats:

  1. a scripted presentation pack or group delivery can be found below in the ‘Downloads’ section of the NCSC webpage. The presentation pack can be used by schools and the education sector to help teach school staff at physical or virtual group sessions – like INSET days or staff meetings.
  2. a self-learn video or staff to complete by themselves is also available on YouTube. The self-learn video includes the same content as the presentation pack, but can be undertaken by a member of staff by themselves at a convenient time.
