Subject Access Requests

You can submit a Subject Access Request if you wish to find out what personal information the school holds about you.

So that the school can identify the required information, it would be helpful if you use this form and submit it to the Head teacher's PA copied to: dataprotection@thekingstonacademy.org

Children over the age of 12 are generally assumed to have the capacity to manage their own data protection rights and we will need their written consent to provide information to a parent/carer on their behalf in response to a Subject Access Request. A consent form is available here.

Parents do not have a legal right to their child's educational record held by The Kingston Academy (this applies only to maintained schools) and requests will be dealt with as Subject Access Requests.
