Copilot Readiness Audit

Microsoft 365 Copilot is a powerful tool. In a school environment, it also comes with real safeguarding and data governance implications. This audit makes sure you’re ready before you deploy.

Copilot can save staff significant time on admin, planning, and communication. But it surfaces content from across your Microsoft 365 environment, including content that staff may not realise is accessible to it. In a school setting, that matters enormously.

Pupil data. Sensitive HR files. Safeguarding records. If your permissions aren’t right, Copilot can expose information in ways you haven’t planned for.

Our Copilot Readiness Audit looks at your Microsoft 365 environment through the lens of a school, checking your data governance, access permissions, licensing, and configuration against best practice for educational settings. We cross-reference against relevant guidance including UK GDPR, KCSIE, and Microsoft’s own recommended controls for education tenants.
