SASF – Consent for Data Processing

As a school, one of our key responsibilities is working in close partnership with our families.  To successfully do so we will need to, when appropriate, share and celebrate information about your child.  Equally, we value your family’s right to privacy, therefore we will ask for your consent before doing so.

In the following section, there are four tick box questions that we need you to complete.  Failure to do so could result in your child missing out on some wider school opportunities.

Photos and videos

Sometimes we take photographs and videos of pupils to aid assessment or record significant events.  We use these for a variety of reasons, from educational purposes, to showing people what school life is like at SASF.  Their use is an invaluable assistance in helping us enrich educational journeys and communicating the message of SASF with the world.

Your consent preferences can be changed at any time by emailing, gdpr@sasf304.ldbsact.org , or contacting the school office.

If you have not consented to the use of photos and videos, and we feel there is a unique opportunity where your child may miss out, we may contact you to ask for one off consent.

Medical information

Throughout the year we may need to ask for further consent regarding sharing medical information with the NHS or other medical professionals.

These may include:

• Information on vaccinations and eye tests
• Height and weight for public health monitoring initiative.
• Communicating with the GP to support the needs of your child.

We or the appropriate medical body will communicate with you at the time to explain further.

Parents

At St Andrew and St Francis CE Primary, we would like to keep in contact with you, so you stay in the loop with what is happening at the school and you know about services which we believe you may be of interest to you.  We may contact you by phone, email or post.

If you do not wish to receive any of these communications please email gdpr@sasf304.ldbsact.org, or contact the school office.

Privacy Notice
