GDPR Statement for Parents/Carers and Pupils/Students

We achieve compliance by ensuring personal data is processed lawfully, transparently, and for a specific purpose. Once the purpose is fulfilled and the data is no longer required, it will be deleted, as stipulated within our Data Retention Policy.

This compliance is embedded in all processes and policies throughout the academy.

The School will not give information about you to anyone outside of the school without your consent unless the law and rules allow us to. The School is required by law to pass some information about you to the Local Authority and the Department for Education (DfE).

Who is responsible for Personal Data?
