The Department has two pupil enrolment systems. For primary enrolments, schools use the Primary Online Database. For post-primary, schools use the Post-Primary Online Database.

The Department is currently exploring options with regard to a unified system and database for both primary and post-primary enrolments.

Please find attached POD and PPOD privacy notices which outline data captured in both systems.
