Question to the Department for Science, Innovation & Technology:

To ask His Majesty's Government how many education technology (EdTech) service providers the Information Commissioner's Office has audited in the last five years; and whether they will publish the names of the organisations and any findings.

The ICO have audited 10 EdTech service providers, have confirmed plans to audit a further seven, and will be requesting further information from other providers to support their audit findings. Common findings and examples are anonymised and will be published after all audits with service providers are completed. Publication decisions on individual audit findings attributed to named service providers is decided on a case-by-case basis, generally with their consent.
