/ Overview

This template provides a structured data protection impact assessment (DPIA) process designed specifically for AI tools used in educational contexts.

The template goes beyond standard DPIA frameworks by addressing the specific data protection risks associated with AI, including automated decision-making, profiling of children, training data practices, and the use of student work as input to AI models.

It includes pre-populated risk descriptions for common AI tool categories (feedback tools, content generators, learning platforms, monitoring tools) and suggested mitigation measures based on ICO guidance.

The template is designed to be completed by school data protection leads or MAT DPOs, with guidance notes throughout.
