- parents; or
- staff or job applicants,
and we assume that you will provide separate notices to those individuals to give them the necessary information about how you handle their personal data. Both the Department for Education (DfE) and the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) have issued guidance on the sorts of notices you should provide. You may find it helpful to refer to their websites, and in particular to:
- https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/data-protection-and-privacy-privacy-notices (suggested privacy notices drafted by the DfE for use with staff, parents and pupils); and
