About us |
On the 25 May 2018, the UK’s Data Protection Act 1998 was replaced by a new law called the GDPR (the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016). This law governs how we collect, use and share people’s information and provides greater rights to individuals and control over how their information is handled by organisations, including schools.
We’re taking steps to review and update our procedures around how we are handling personal information and have appointed an external Data Protection Officer (Annette Henry). As part of this process, we have updated our privacy notice which explains how we handle pupil information, which is available to download here. We will publish more information about how we are meeting the GDPR on this page in due course and our policies around this. If in the meantime you would like to know more about the GDPR and your rights, please visit the UK’s data protection regulator, the Information Commissioner’s Office at www.ico.org.uk Should you have any queries regarding the GDPR and our school, you can contact our Data Protection Officer, Jayne Edwards, through the school at admin@topsham.devon.sch.uk Please click on the buttons below to view our Policies and Privacy Notices: |
