The General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) is a piece of EU-wide legislation which determines how people’s personal data is processed and kept safe, and the legal rights individuals have in relation to their own data.

‘Personal data’ means information that can identify a living individual.

The regulation applies to all schools, and will apply even after the UK leaves the EU.

Our Federation has an appointed data protection officer (DPO) through School’s Choice. The role of the DPO is to inform and advise the school on its data protection obligations.

If you have any questions in relation to GDPR within our federation, you can contact the DPO at data.protection@schoolschoice.org.
