Horrified by the attack on a synagogue in Manchester.
My heart goes out to the families those killed & who’ve been affected.

I know #granddesigns follows a formula but it’s still painful watching novice project managers wondering why no one pointed stuff out to them

Schools affected (& more generally) would do well to check what info must be held on the SCR & that leavers data is deleted as per KCSiE

This is of concern. Important to check what security measures online providers have when you hand them data to process on your behalf
