Privacy notice for parents and carers Use of you and your child’s personal data

Under data protection law, individuals have a right to be informed about how the school uses any personal data that we hold about them. We comply with this right by providing ‘privacy notices’ (sometimes called ‘fair processing notices’) to individuals where we are processing their personal data.

This privacy notice explains how we collect, store and use personal data about pupils and their parents/carers.

We, Seven Hills School, are the ‘data controller’ for the purposes of data protection law.

Our data protection officer is Toby Wilson (EduDataPro) (see ‘Contact us’ below).
