To find out more about the data collection requirements placed on us by the Department for
Education (for example; via the school census) go to https://www.gov.uk/education/data-
collection-and-censuses-for-schools.
The National Pupil/student Database (NPD) The NPD is owned and managed by the
Department for Education and contains information about pupil/students in schools in
England. It provides invaluable evidence on educational performance to inform independent
research, as well as studies commissioned by the Department. It is held in electronic format
for statistical purposes. This information is securely collected from a range of sources
including schools, local authorities and awarding bodies. We are required by law, to provide
information about our Pupil/students to the DfE as part of statutory data collections such as
the school census and early years’ census.
Some of this information is then stored in the NPD. The law that allows this is the Education
(Information About Individual Pupil/students) (England) Regulations 2013. To find out more
about the Pupil/student information we share with the Department, for the purpose of data
collections, go to https://www.gov.uk/education/data-collection-and-censuses-for-schools .
The Department may share information about our Pupil/students from the NPD with third
parties who promote the education or well-being of children in England by:
conducting research or analysis producing statistics
providing information, advice or guidance
The Department has robust processes in place to ensure the confidentiality of our data is
maintained and there are stringent controls in place regarding access and use of the data.
Decisions on whether DfE releases data to third parties are subject to a strict approval
process and based on a detailed assessment of:
who is requesting the data
the purpose for which it is required
the level and sensitivity of data requested: and
the arrangements in place to store and handle the data
To be granted access to student information, organisations must comply with strict terms
and conditions covering the confidentiality and handling of the data, security arrangements
and retention and use of the data.
