UK General Data Protection Regulations (UK GDPR)

Our school has published a privacy notice (see below) and other documents as required to fit the UK GDP Regulations.

We will ask you for specific consent for some things where we do not have another basis for processing your data and don’t already have a suitable consent; if you do not respond we will assume you do not consent as required by the “opt-in” regulations. Most processing in schools is governed by various laws so doesn’t need a separate consent, but this is not always the case.

You have the following rights in respect of your data:

• The right to be informed
• The right of access
• The right to rectification
• The right to erasure
• The right to restrict processing
• The right to data portability
• The right to object
• Rights in relation to automated decision making and profiling.

For further information, please see the ICO website https://ico.org.uk.

Our school has appointed a Data Protection Officer (DPO), who you can contact via email or post if, for example, you have an issue with our handling of your data that our school has not been able to assist you with. The DPO acts for a number of schools, so please ensure that you identify our school when contacting to avoid delays:

The council also holds data relating to schools and pupils for their statutory duties. You can find their privacy statement online at https://new.enfield.gov.uk/privacy-notice.

The new rules are intended to give you better control and understanding of what we do with your information; they will not in any way interfere with the provision of your child’s education.
