St James’ Anglican School recently identified a cyber security incident involving unauthorised access to its computer systems.

The School acted immediately to contain the incident, secured its systems, and is performing a thorough cyber-security audit.

The investigation has identified that personal information relating to members of the School community was involved. The School has notified families and provided them with information about the incident and practical steps they can take to protect their information.

The process of reporting to the relevant authorities has commenced and will continue. This includes reporting to the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner within the required timeframe.

The School is continuing to work closely with its cyber security advisers and will provide further information directly to affected members of our community where appropriate.

Our priority is supporting our students, families and staff while ensuring the security of the School’s systems.

As the investigation remains ongoing, the School will not comment on specific technical or security matters.
