Advice for Parents
Why is GDPR important?
In essence, GDPR is important because it safeguards your child's personal information, giving you peace of mind that their privacy is respected and protected in the digital age.
- Privacy Protection: GDPR ensures that your child's personal information is kept safe and secure, preventing it from being misused or accessed without proper authorisation.
- Control Over Data: You have the right to know what data the school collects about your child and how it is used. You can also request corrections or deletions of this data if necessary.
- Informed Consent: Schools must obtain clear permission from you before collecting or using your child's data for specific purposes, ensuring transparency and trust.
- Safety Measures: GDPR requires schools to implement strong security measures to protect your child's data from breaches or cyber-attacks.
