Data Protection Compliance workshop

19th Nov 2015

Data Protection Compliance workshop
As a School you handle personal information about individuals (Children, parents and employees) which means you have a number of legal obligations to protect that information under the Data Protection Act 1998.

Are you or your employees aware of the legal requirements of the Data Protection Act? Does your Data Protection Policy explain how the 8 principles are embedded in your school?  Are your employees aware of how the safeguarding & child protection, AUP and Whistle Blowing policies link to the Data Protection Act Policy?   The monetary penalty is now up to £500,000 for serious breaches of the Data Protection Act.
