 Policies

This school is governed by Schoolsworks and our core policies are determined by the academy trust and apply to all schools.

They cover key HR and Trust-wide issues and our Exclusions Policy.

All policies will be updated in line with our new school values when they are reviewed as part of our ongoing cycle.

Having a set of trust-wide policies ensures consistency and also reduces workload at school level.  Any serious grievances, complaints or matters of safeguarding or confidential reporting relating to the school should be addressed to the officers of the academy trust.

GDPR

The ‘General Data Protection Regulation’ (GDPR) changed how we can use your personal data and keep it safe, and it also strengthened your rights over your own data.

The change was to make sure sensitive or private information about yourselves and your children stays safe. Whilst it is similar to the current Data Protection Act in many ways, there are a few differences.

Any request for information regarding a child, parent or member of staff, cannot be given without us being confident of the identity of the person asking for it. This means that you may be asked for information that verifies who you are if you ask for information over the phone or by email.

A video explaining GDPR can be found on YouTube via the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ua_LzUJ_wu8 

A copy of the Schoolsworks Trust-wide Privacy Notice can be found at the bottom of this page.  You may also be interested to read Schoolsworks policies for Data Protection, ICT and Acceptable Use, Photo Policy, Staff and Pupil privacy, which can be found by following www.schoolsworks.org. If you are unable to access the policies online, you may request a copy from the school office.

If you have any questions about how the GDPR affects you, or how our school implements GDPR policies, you can contact Louise Pope, our Data Protection Officer, by calling 01903 729988, or emailing her at: dpo@schoolsworks.org
