Like everyone else we’ve been bombarded with requests to say signed up for various services in the run up to the brave new world of GDPR, tomorrow 25th May – most of which I wasn’t even aware! We have taken great pleasure in deleting most of them (although I must admit I still retained the Pizza Express link – one of my weaknesses).
We have been debating the best way of getting parents to give their consent and have explored some on-line services that cost (not keen) and then the simple paper and pencil alternative, but we don’t like having to spend money unnecessarily and the paper option is a bit of a nightmare bureaucratically.
We have been exploring Google Forms as an alternative and we think this should do the job for us well. If you don’t know this useful tool, have a look https://www.google.co.uk/forms/about/
As promised our Data Protection Policy and Privacy notices are on our website if you would like to have a look.
