Well, learning is going global at quite a pace. It makes good sense for companies who are themselves growing rapidly in this global education space to look for ways to collaborate and at Learning Possibilities we are delighted to announce our own partnership and collaboration with Capita Managed IT Solutions, together providing a powerful digital solution to the management of teaching and education resources. Making learning better, together.

We both enjoy large installations of our digital tools and resources. In a world where new technology-in-learning companies seem to appear, crash and burn in very short order it is pleasing that both Learning Possibilities and Capita Managed IT Solutions have been around for very many years. We both have an experienced track record of providing and evolving, what schools, teachers and learners need.

As most of you will already know, LP+365 is an app that transforms Microsoft Office 365 into a simple to use school’s learning and collaboration platform. Students and teachers can instantly work together through a simple dashboard offering a personal space where they can manage emails, OneDrive, OneNote, together with Skype, assignments and calendars, all from one simple and easy to use platform.

LP+365 can be accessed on any smart device, from the classroom, at home or even (and this matters in many emerging new education systems globally), off-line too.

At Learning Possibilities, we have always been a bit obsessed with data protection, together with children’s safety and their privacy.  Recent events elsewhere suggest we were right to be so thorough! However, the good news is that from 25th of May 2018 the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation joins us in those concerns – and GDPR applies to pretty much everyone. It supersedes the old Data Protection Act and is a huge change, that impacts on everyone.

What is GDPR?

GDPR imposes new obligations for “data processors” and “data controllers” with tougher penalties enforced for data breaches. The good news is that GDPR will provide us all with a greater input as to what can be done with our data. GDPR applies right across the whole EU.

How are we prepared for GDPR

At Learning Possibilities, as a Microsoft Gold Partner, all the data on our LP+365 App is stored safely and very securely in the Microsoft Azure Cloud. Microsoft to share our history of caring about the detail of Data Protection.  They have over 100 datacenters and more than 200 cloud services and are investing over $1 billion annually in data security.  At Learning Possibilities we have approximately 4.6 million pieces of children’s work online and are delighted to be working with Microsoft to build our experiences of global learners into GDPR responses going forwards. It’s a big responsibility and fortunately, we have a lot of experience.

It is often said that “there is no such thing as a free lunch”, or that “if the product is free, then you are the thing being sold”.  Which is why our learning tools are entirely advertisement free, whilst data is securely private. GDPR tips the balance away from children being commodities and back to kids being kids;  we like that!
