AI is already exploiting school photos – and schools are at risk.

The threat. AI tools can take a simple school photo and turn it into harmful material.

They don’t need names or context – just a face.

School websites, newsletters, and social media are rich sources of these images.

The risks for schools

  • Children’s faces misused in deepfake and explicit content
  • Long-term safeguarding trauma for pupils
  • Reputational damage, liability, and loss of parental trust

This isn’t a future problem

  • Criminal misuse of images is happening now
  • AI is scraping school photos online today
  • Schools must act immediately to safeguard pupils and reputations

Digital safeguarding is no longer optional

  • Traditional safeguarding ends at the school gate
  • Online threats demand proactive protection
  • Schools today need to prioritise children’s digital identities as much as their physical safety
