GDPR (General Data Protection Regulation) is a European Union (EU) law that came into effect on 25th May 2018.
UK GDPR governs the way in which we can use, process, and store personal data. It applies to all organisations within the EU (including schools), as well as those supplying goods or services to the EU or monitoring EU citizens.
GDPR is large and complex, so as a school, we have written a number of policies to address the legislation which are available for you to read or download on our Policies page should you wish to.
Below are links to privacy notices for our school community
