A built-in review system even allows teachers to share their experiences, helping others understand the classroom impact of different platforms.
For administrators and tech teams, the Application Library goes beyond basic management.

What people say
“The team at 9ine have been instrumental in supporting us in our journey toward stronger data privacy controls and a better cybersecurity posture. Their materials are thorough, precise, and easy to use, all at the same time. We've benefited greatly, both as an IT team and also as a wider organisation, having access to the 9ine team and their expertise. What really makes a difference is that 9ine understands the nuance of international schools in a way that other out-of-the-box cybersecurity and data privacy consultancies do not. Highly recommended.”
“We began to work with 9ine for our Digital Privacy Management. We quickly expanded to their Cybersecurity services due to their professionalism, especially when such a wide range of aspects can benefit from each other. The different teams are always aware of what’s happening, and we benefit significantly, whether at a board level or on a very granular “under the hood” scale.”
“They felt like an extension of our IT support team for the time they were with us and were never judgemental on the approach we take with our systems and security. I’d have no concerns about recommending them (and using their services) again in the future.”
9ine Platform Capabilities
The 9ine Platform has the following core capabilities so you can tailor the platform to suit your school's requirements. The main sections are Governance, Privacy, Vendor Management, Application Library, and 9ine Academy. They can be used separately or combined, enabling you to centralise data protection practices, cyber security records, IT infrastructure project upgrades, and reporting to senior leaders.
Empowers organisations to centralise the management, coordination, and reporting of projects, statutory obligations, regulatory compliance and technology improvements. Organisations can seamlessly organise and report on educational, financial, and operational performance, while effectively managing safeguarding, technology, data protection risks, issues, lessons and tasks.
Supports organisations manage their data privacy and protection programme. The comprehensive solution equips organisations to seamlessly navigate the complexities of data protection, enabling them to efficiently capture, assess, and manage personal data processing activities, capture roles & responsibilities, undertake detailed data privacy and protection impacts assessments (DPIA), capture and evaluate security incidents and breaches and evaluate third party vendors for compliance with privacy, cyber, safeguarding and related law.
Vendor management in the context of data privacy and security revolves around strategically overseeing and controlling relationships with third-party suppliers to ensure they adhere to stringent data protection and system security standards. It involves careful vendor selection, robust contract management emphasising data security, regular security and privacy assessments, risk management, incident response planning, compliance monitoring, system security enhancement, and continuous improvement efforts to safeguard sensitive data and maintain system integrity.
This powerful module creates a central library of all EdTech platforms and apps for your school. With schools having hundreds of EdTech platforms and apps, it is difficult for any user to see what the school currently has, the impact of that technology on teaching and learning, and to access support resources such as ‘how to guides’ or supplier provided training materials. Application Library removes these barriers, supporting schools to effectively manage and control their EdTech ecosystem.
Enables schools to enrol individual staff members or entire groups in comprehensive training courses, modules, and assessments, featuring in-built quizzes and certificates. This training programme offers tailored professional development courses for governance and compliance. Crafted from real-life school scenarios and insights from over 15 years of working with schools, this training programme is specific for schools.
