Data Protection (GDPR)

From 25 May 2018, new regulations were introduced that affect how our school handles people's data.  This is called the General Data Protection Regulation (UKGDPR).  Compliance with the regulations will be an ongoing process and the school have appointed a Data Protection Officer to advise and manage compliance with the regulation.  Full details of our data protection officer can be found below should you have any questions.

All documentation will be added to this page, to include policy and privacy notices that are compliant with the new regulations.

Your children's data will be handled in the same manner in accordance with legal principles.
