GDPR and Data Protection
Changes to Data Protection Law - GDPR
You may be aware that from May, the rules around data protection are changing. The 'General Data Protection Regulation' (GDPR) will change how we can use your personal data and keep it safe and will also strengthen your rights over your own data.
The point of this is to make sure sensitive or private information about yourselves and your children stays safe. Whilst it is similar to the current Data Protection Act in many ways, there are a few differences, so we need to make a few changes at the school in order to ensure we remain compliant.
Data Protection and GDPR Policy
We are in the process of updating our policy and will share it as soon as it is finalised.
Consent for taking and using Photographs
As part of our work to comply with the GDPR, we are also re-seeking consent for using photographs or videos of your child on our website, internal displays or other school materials
We will be sending a letter out to all parents and carers soon
Privacy notices
One of these changes is that we have updated our privacy notice. Please see our updated version below.
If you have any questions about how the GDPR affects you, or how our school is preparing, you can contact us via the school office.
