Privacy notice for staff

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 individuals we employ, or

otherwise engage, to work at our school.

We, Grasmere Primary School, 92 Albion Road London N16 9PD, are the ‘data controller’ for the purposes of

data protection law.

Our data protection officer is Gaye Oztok, School Business Manager (see ‘Contact us’ below).

we may collect, use, store and share (when appropriate) about you includes, but is not restricted to:

 Contact details

The purpose of processing this data is to help us run the school, including to:

 Facilitate safe recruitment, as part of our safeguarding obligations towards pupils

 Support effective performance management

 Inform our recruitment and retention policies

 Allow better financial modelling and planning

 Enable ethnicity and disability monitoring

Our lawful basis for using this data

We only collect and use personal information about you when the law allows us to. Most commonly, we use it

where we need to:

 Fulfil a contract we have entered into with you

 Comply with a legal obligation

 Carry out a task in the public interest

Less commonly, we may also use personal information about you were:

 You have given us consent to use it in a certain way

 We have legitimate interests in processing the data – for example, where:

o School Workforce Census

Where you have provided us with consent to use your data, you may withdraw this consent at any time. We

will make this clear when requesting your consent, and explain how you go about withdrawing consent if you

wish to do so.

Some of the reasons listed above for collecting and using personal information about you overlap, and there

may be several grounds which justify the school’s use of your data.

Collecting this information

While the majority of information we collect from you is mandatory, there is some information that you can

choose whether or not to provide to us.

Whenever we seek to collect information from you, we make it clear whether you must provide this

information (and if so, what the possible consequences are of not complying), or whether you have a choice.

Your rights

How to access personal information we hold about you

Individuals have a right to make a ‘subject access request’ to gain access to personal information that the

school holds about them.

If you make a subject access request, and if we do hold information about you, we will:

 Give you a description of it

 Tell you why we are holding and processing it, and how long we will keep it for

 Explain where we got it from, if not from you

 Tell you who it has been, or will be, shared with

 Let you know whether any automated decision-making is being applied to the data, and any

consequences of this

 Give you a copy of the information in an intelligible form

You may also have the right for your personal information to be transmitted electronically to another

organisation in certain circumstances.

If you would like to make a request, please contact our data protection officer.

You’re other rights regarding your data

Under data protection law, individuals have certain rights regarding how their personal data is used and kept

safe. You have the right to:

 Object to the use of your personal data if it would cause, or is causing, damage or distress

 Prevent your data being used to send direct marketing

 Object to the use of your personal data for decisions being taken by automated means (by a computer

or machine, rather than by a person)

 In certain circumstances, have inaccurate personal data corrected, deleted or destroyed, or restrict

processing

 Claim compensation for damages caused by a breach of the data protection regulations

To exercise any of these rights, please contact our data protection officer.

We take any complaints about our collection and use of personal information very seriously.
