General Data Protection

CORONAVIRUS

On 25 May 2018, the General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR) came into force in the UK.  These new data protection regulations build upon the Data Protection Act of 1998.

The GDPR require public authorities and businesses to identify the lawful basis for storing personal data, audit information we already hold and take a ‘data protection by design and default’ approach to personal data.  

We take data protection very seriously at Carterhatch Junior School.  In line with GDPR requirements Connect Education Trust has appointed a Data Protection Officer to oversee our approach to data management and protection. 

In order to ensure that we comply with the new regulations, we are reviewing our current policies and practices. We have already updated our privacy notices in line with the new requirements.  Please see documents below.
