General Data Protection Regulation – Is your school / academy trust ready?
Significant changes to the law on data protection will be coming into force on 25 May 2018.
Every organisation in the UK, including schools / academy trusts, will be required to comply with the new legislation – known as the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
To help organisations prepare for the changes, the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) has put together a 12-step guidance note which we recommend all Governors should be aware of.
