This document discusses opening up an organization's data to external stakeholders. It identifies potential data sources like students, staff, governors, parents, employers, and funding bodies. Benefits include delegating responsibility, self-cleansing data, knowledge sharing, problem solving and collaboration. However, issues include maintaining control, preventing unplanned leaks, legal compliance, loss of competitive advantage, ensuring transparency and data accuracy. The document suggests easing use, cleansing data integrity, involving users, and considering external data sources for environmental scanning, benchmarking and comparison tools.
