Consent form for photographs and footage

Photographs and recordings of pupils for Edendork Primary School, family and press are a source of pride to both the pupils and their families//legal guardians. Taking, keeping and publishing photographs and video footage involves processing personal data under data protection laws.

To enable us to comply with our obligations under the General Data Protection Regulation, we are required to obtain express consent to the use of a pupil’s image for example in school displays, performances, newsletters, prospectus and our social media platforms.

In all instances below, the image or footage may be of an individual, small group, class or classes. Where pupils are named, we will use first names only unless we have sought prior permission from you to publish full names
(*newspaper and media companies will often use a full name and we will not seek further permission for this). We
will only use photographs and footage where pupils are appropriately dressed to reduce the risk of inappropriate use of the images or footage.

Parents//legal guardians of our pupils should complete this form on behalf of the pupil. This consent form is valid for the academic year 2020 to 2021. It will be updated on an annual basis. Consent will also be refreshed where any changes to circumstances occur – this can include, but is not limited to, the following:
