- Student data lives in lots of different places
- Data exists in a variety of formats such as spreadsheets
- Data is sent between schools in a way which does not comply with GDPR
- Data can be inconsistent and incomplete
- The data provided is not always coherent
- Delays occur in the provision of information
- Limited information about individual pupils
- Confusing communications between all parties
