Data Protection

 

STATEMENT - Data Protection 2018

GDPR stands for General Data Protection Regulation and replaces the previous Data Protection Directives that were in place. It was approved by the EU Parliament in 2016 and came into effect on 25th May 2018 and is now known as Data Protection 2018.

Data Protection 2018 states that personal data should be ‘processed fairly & lawfully’ and ‘collected for specified, explicit and legitimate purposes’ and that an individual’s data should not be processed without their knowledge but only with their ‘explicit’ consent.  Data Protection 2018 covers personal data relating to individuals. Fullwood Primary School is committed to protecting the rights and freedoms of individuals with respect to the processing of children's, parents’, visitors’ and staff personal data.

Data Protection 2018 gives individuals the right to know what information is held about them. It provides a framework to ensure that personal information is handled properly

Fullwood Primary School is registered with the ICO (Information Commissioner's Office)

 

Who This Privacy Notice Applies to?

Fullwood Primary School is deemed to be the “data controller” for all personal information processed by staff, students and suppliers – (as defined in UK general data protection legislation).

The School is situated at 21-24 Burford Close, Barkingside, IG6 1ER. 

 

What is 'personal information'?

Personal information is information that the School collects about staff, pupils and parents. This includes information such as name, date of birth, National Insurance Number, address as well as exam results, medical details, nationality and behaviour records. The School may also record religion and ethnicity.

 

How and why does the School collect personal information?

The School collects and / or processes substantial volumes of personal data on students and those related to them as well as on staff.  A pupil’s previous school will pass on personal information that is kept by the school.  We obtain other information from pupils, parents, and teachers.  On occasion, the School may also obtain information from doctors and other professionals

CCTV, photos and video recordings of pupils are also considered to be ‘personal information’. The School collects this information to help it run properly and safely.

Here are some examples:

  • The School will need to advise Teaching and some Support staff if a pupil is allergic to something or may need extra help with some tasks.
  • The School may need to report some information to the Government (including information regarding UK Visas and Immigration) and to other schools.
  • The School may need to share information with the police or legal advisers if something goes wrong, or to help with an enquiry.
  • The School will share some information with its insurance company.
  • Where it is fair, the School may share pupil academic and behaviour records with their parents or education guardian so that it can support the pupil’s schooling 
  •  The School uses photographs or videos of pupils for teaching purposes. Photographs and videos may also be used on the School’s website, social media sites or in the School Prospectus and other marketing materials. Consent from parents will be sought before using any photographs
  • The School sometimes publishes articles and photographs in the local news. Again Consent is always sought from parents before photographs are used.
  • The School uses CCTV around the site and at the Pedestrian and Vehicle entrances to keep students and staff safe and to maintain the security of the site.
  • We process personal data relating to those we employ to work at, or otherwise engage to work at, our school. This is for employment purposes to assist in the running of the school and/or to enable individuals to be paid.
     

All “personal data” and/or “special category data” (as defined in the legislation) is processed in order to provide education for pupils and associated services.  All processing is conducted in accordance with current laws/regulations.

The School may share data with third parties in the provision of its services, for example (but not exclusively): catering, IT software, administration or to fully utilise school buildings by hiring them to outside organisations.

It may be necessary to share data with other public authorities as may be required by law or to prevent harm to the individual.  The school does not accept liability for any processing by any third party outside the school.

The school collects and or processes substantial volumes of personal data on students and those related to them as well as staff.  Data is retained as long as it is relevant to the reasons for collection.  Some data is collected for government statistics.  Certain data is retained for a period dictated by statute.  All feasible security measures are in place.  All destruction of data (whether manual or electronic) is by secure means.

Where consent may be required for processing, such consent will be sought at the time, for example in using a biometrics system for Library services.
