Need a UK GDPR refresh? Get a handle on it with our UK GDPR summary.
All schools must have a data protection officer (DPO) who takes responsibility for monitoring data protection compliance and has the knowledge, support and authority to do so effectively.
Ask for a UK GDPR report
If you're a maintained school governing board or board of trustees, whoever holds the DPO role should report to you on data protection matters. This so you can assure yourself that your school or trust is compliant with the UK GDPR. If you haven't received a data protection report, ask for one.
If you're on a local governing body in a MAT, check your scheme of delegation to see whether you have any responsibilities here. If your school has a data protection champion at school level, you may receive a report from them.
