Our legal basis

We use your information to provide the education you have asked for, to meet our legal duties (including safeguarding and charity accounting), and with your consent, which you give on the registration form. Medical and additional needs information is used only to keep your child safe and support their learning.

How we keep it safe

  • Records are stored securely online in the UK and Europe, and protected by individual staff logins.
  • Teachers can only see the details they need for their own class, such as allergy alerts.
  • Emails from the Academy are sent through a secure email service.
  • We do not sell or share personal data with third parties for marketing.
  • We share information with Hillingdon Children's Services or the police only where the law or a safeguarding concern requires it.

How long we keep it

We keep records for as long as your child attends and for as long afterwards as we need them for legal, safeguarding and financial reasons. They are then securely destroyed.

  • Have information corrected if it is wrong
  • Ask for information to be deleted or its use restricted, where the law allows
  • Withdraw consent at any time, for example photo consent
