We're growing at PublicTec!

We're looking for a Data Protection & Technical Support Administrator to join our team on a part-time basis (3 days per week).

This is a great opportunity for someone who's organised, has an eye for detail and is confident with technology. Experience in data protection would be a bonus, but we're equally interested in finding someone with the right attitude and willingness to learn.

Bedfordshire / Hybrid
Part-time – 3 days per week
£16,800–£18,600 per annum

💬 Sometimes the best way to explain the value of a platform is to hear it directly from the people using it.

We recently introduced more schools to EduGovern360, our platform designed to help Multi-Academy Trusts bring their data protection and compliance activity into one central place.

The feedback has been fantastic:

⭐ “It seems a very comprehensive system. It’s been very clearly thought through and designed to ensure full compliance.”

⭐ “It all looks really good and helpful to keep us compliant.”

⭐ “I had a couple of SARs last year, so I’m particularly happy to see this new system.”

And one comment really captured why we built EduGovern360:

⭐ “So much of my time is used redacting, looking for a central place to store things and being unsure how compliant I really am.”

That is exactly the problem we wanted to solve.

EduGovern360 brings together:

✅ Subject Access Requests and FOIs
✅ Data breaches and case management
✅ GDPR audits and action tracking
✅ DPIAs
✅ Risk Registers
✅ Records of Processing Activities
✅ Software Registers
✅ Compliance dashboards and oversight

All within one online platform, giving schools a clear place to manage their responsibilities while providing Trust leaders and DPOs with greater visibility and assurance across the organisation.

Data protection shouldn't live across dozens of spreadsheets, inboxes and folders.

It should be structured, manageable and visible.

That’s what we’re building with EduGovern360.

EduGovern360 is growing!

We're proud to now be supporting 60+ schools and over 200 users on the EduGovern360 platform.

Schools and Trusts are moving away from disconnected spreadsheets, manual trackers and endless email chains, replacing them with a single, harmonised platform for:

✅ GDPR Compliance
✅ Risk Management
✅ Freedom of Information (FOI) Requests
✅ Subject Access Requests (SARs)
✅ Data Breach Management
✅ DPIAs & ROPA
✅ Audit & Action Tracking
✅ Trust-wide Reporting & Dashboards

If you're still managing compliance through multiple spreadsheets and documents, ask yourself...

Isn't it time for a smarter way of working?

We’re proud to have donated laptops to Everyone’s Gang to help support the incredible work they do with young people who may be at risk of exploitation, gang involvement, knife crime, and criminal activity.

The devices will help provide access to:
• Job searching
• CV writing and applications
• Online courses and training
• Education and employability support

With the academic year coming to an end, this support is particularly important for Year 11 students preparing for college, apprenticeships, part-time work, and other post-16 pathways.

We’re pleased to play a small part in helping young people access the tools and opportunities they need to build positive futures.

A huge thank you to PublicTec for the generous donation of 9 laptops and 1 Microsoft Surface. The use of these laptops will open up even more doors at Everyone’s Gang and add another layer to the support we provide for young people. We truly appreciate your support and generosity💻✨

Also, special shoutout to Cristina for making this happen. We appreciate you!💜

EduGovern360 is now LIVE

After months of development working closely with schools and trusts, we’re proud to officially launch EduGovern360 PublicTec’s Schools Compliance Platform.

We built this for one simple reason:

Schools are managing critical compliance across too many disconnected tools.

EduGovern360 brings it all together.

✔ GDPR Audits
✔ Safeguarding (KCSIE) Assessments
✔ SAR, FOI & Data Breach Case Management
✔ Trust-Wide Risk Registers
✔ Action Tracking & Audit Scheduling
✔ Real-Time Compliance Dashboards

No spreadsheets. No chasing updates. No uncertainty.

Just clear oversight, accountability, and confidence across your entire trust.

From speaking with DPOs, Headteachers, and Governance Leads, the same challenges kept coming up:

“We can’t see our compliance position clearly”
“Everything is manual and time-consuming”
“We’re always preparing for the next audit”

That’s exactly what EduGovern360 solves.

Whether you're a single school or a multi-academy trust, this gives you a centralised compliance operating system designed specifically for education.

We’re now booking live demos

If you’d like to see how this could work in your school or trust, drop me a message or comment below and I’ll get something booked in.
