From 25th May 2018, the Data Protection Act (DPA) was replaced by the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR) – meaning that the way you manage all data and information within your school changed. You have always been brilliant with handling Data as you have had to deal with sensitive data for a long time but GDPR (soon to be replaced by the DPA2018) means that legally you have to take extra measures to ensure the data you are controlling and processing is kept secure.
Whether it is the use of filing cabinets, keeping records and databases of student/staff information, CCTV monitoring, Payment Card transactions - today’s educational landscape is packed with data.
You have always had a duty of care to ensure data is managed securely but you now have an increased responsibility to ensure this information – regardless of what form it’s kept in – is managed in the right way in compliance with this new regulation.
The Information Commissioners Office are urging educational providers to again ensure they have taken the right steps so far in their compliance journey and have started putting practices into place that aid them on this journey such as the engagement with a Data Protection Officer (DPO).
We at i-west (Part of the One West traded services of Bath and North East Somerset) have previously offered a discounted rate for Exeter Consortium member schools and this still remains the case.
Our team has proven very effective with many schools around Exeter already and will continue to expand to help the educational establishments we work with on this journey.
