Governors' Pocket Guide to information to parents

Managing school information is a complex task with two major Acts of Parliament – the Data Protection Act 1998 and the Freedom of Information Act 2001 – governing how public bodies such as schools deal with requests for information.

With this in mind ACE has produced a new Governors’ Pocket Guide to Information for Parents with summaries of the Acts and pupil information regulations. The guide includes step-by-step instructions for dealing with a request for a school record, other personal information or any other school information such as governing body minutes. Considerations such as confidentiality, human rights to privacy and the public interest are explained.
