We collect and hold personal information relating to our pupils and may also receive information about them from their previous school, local authority and/or the Department for Education (DfE). We use this personal data to:

• support our pupils’ learning
• monitor and report on their progress
• provide appropriate pastoral care; and
• assess the quality of our services

This information will include their contact details, national curriculum assessment results, attendance information, any exclusion information, where they go after they leave us and personal characteristics such as their ethnic group, any special educational needs they may have as well as relevant medical information.

Under data protection law, individuals have a right to be informed about how the Trust 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.

The privacy notices below explain how we collect, store and use personal data for students and 
their parents/guardians.

We, Cranmer Education Trust, are the ‘data controller’ for the purposes of data protection 
law.
