Here’s what else can be done to ensure GDPR compliance relating to the impact of the legislation:

Ensure all staff are aware of GDPR, how data is collected and stored and the implications of a breach. This can be done through general GDPR awareness training, with more specific training for staff that hold more responsibility.

Schools should have systems in place that gather parental consent for data processing and also verify individuals’ ages.

School-wide visibility on what software is being used for teaching and data collection, such as teaching apps. Information on all of this software should be collated in one place with the proper explanation on what their purpose is and what personal data is required to access them. All software needs to be GDPR compliant, otherwise this could result in serious fines.

Because schools are defined as a public authority within GDPR legislation, they are required by law to employ or assign a Data Protection Officer. This role is responsible for any GDPR compliance and data protection.

Article 5(1)(b) of the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), purpose limitation is the second principle related to the processing of personal data. Purpose limitation relates closely to the first principle of lawfulness, fairness and transparency.

Purpose Limitation Summary

A specific and legitimate reason is needed for any personal data that is collected

Personal data can only be used for the specified reasons

Exceptions could be made if further processing is for any of the following purposes (MF)

Teachers in England are now required to promote PREVENT within and outside school, since the publication of the Counter Terrorism and Security Act of 2015 and the White Paper ‘Educational Excellence Everywhere’, are required to prevent pupils from being drawn towards radicalisation.

The statutory guidance on the Prevent duty summarises the requirements on schools and childcare providers in terms of four general themes: risk assessment, working in partnership, staff training and IT policies. This advice focuses on those four themes.

All staff should undergo safeguarding and child protection training at induction

This training should:

Include online safety

Be integrated, aligned and considered as part of your whole school safeguarding approach and wider staff training and curriculum planning

Be updated regularly

Be in line with advice from the local 3 safeguarding partners (the LA, a clinical commissioning group for an area in the LA, and the chief of police for an area in the LA)

Have regard to the Teachers' Standards, with the expectation that teachers manage behaviour effectively for a safe environment and have a clear understanding of the needs of all pupils

Give staff an awareness of the school's safeguarding systems, including:

The child protection policy

The behaviour policy

The safeguarding response to children going missing from education

The staff behaviour policy/code of conduct

The role and identity of the designated safeguarding lead (DSL) and any deputies (MF)
