Ethnic/Cultural
Ethnicity

Our ethnic background describes how we think of ourselves. This may be based on many things, including, for
example, our skin colour, language, culture, ancestry or family history. Ethnic background is not the same as
nationality or country of birth.
The Department of Children, Schools and Families recommends that those with parental responsibility decide
the ethnic background for primary pupils. The Information Commissioner (formerly the Data Protection
Registry) recommends that young people aged over 11 years old have the opportunity to decide their own
ethnic identity. Parents, or those with parental responsibility are asked to support or advise those children aged
over 11 in making this decision, wherever necessary. Pupils aged 16 or over can make this decision for
themselves.
Please study the list below and tick one box only to indicate the ethnic background of the pupil or child named
above. Please also tick whether the form was filled in my a parent or the pupil.

Child’s Language Background – PLEASE FILL IN CAREFULLY – YOUR ANSWER MIGHT
NOT BE AS OBVIOUS AS YOU THINK !!

Many children have only ever had experience of hearing English as a spoken language in the family home.
However, many others will have heard another language spoken within the family setting during their
childhood. Please ring any such language below, but only one language, even if the child only
experienced hearing it in early childhood and has English as their native and fluent language. If your
child heard several such languages during their childhood, ring the language other than English to which
they had most exposure.
Note that declaring an “additional language” has no bearing on how your child is viewed or setted etc: but it
is vital for us to get a good overall picture of the background of our student body.

     INFORMATION FOR STUDENTS AND PARENTS OF STUDENTS ATTENDING ST
                        GEORGE’S SCHOOL 2021-22

Occasionally, we may take photographs of the children at our school. We may use these images in
our school prospectus or in other printed publications that we produce, as well as on our website
and social media platforms.

We will not use the personal details or full names (which means first name and surname
together) of any child in a photographic image on video, on our website, in our school prospectus
or in any of our other openly available publications. We may use group or class photographs or
footage with very general labels, such as “a Science class” or “the 1st Lacrosse XII”. We will not
include personal email or postal addresses, or telephone or fax numbers on video, on our website, in
our school prospectus or in other openly available publications. In general, we will be providing a
much higher level of care in what we post than students sadly largely apply to themselves! You will
understand that with social media a part and parcel of modern life, we do not want to miss out on
the opportunities these platforms can give to share positive news and celebrate achievement of all

To comply with the General Data Protection Requirement, we need your permission before we can
photograph or make any recordings of your child apart from any needed for the fundamental
functioning of the school as an educational establishment (for instance so that staff can have photo
class lists to learn names, so that students can have photo id badges in the 6th form, and so on).

You will understand that it would be very helpful to the school if ALL parents/students were to
grant the level of permission we are requesting – otherwise, logging and tracking which children
can and cannot be photographed will pose a considerable challenge.

Further details of how we process imagery, who has access to it and control of its use, etc, can be
found in the school privacy notice and the information security policy.

Note that you can in law amend any consent given below at any time and without giving your
reason.

If you are minded to withhold consent, please be aware that a call to the schools Data Protection
Officer (DPO) may allow us to reassure you and allay concerns.

From time to time, our school may be visited by the media who will take photographs or film
footage of a visiting dignitary or other high profile event. Pupils will sometimes appear in these
images, which may appear in local or national newspapers, or on televised news programmes or
internet platforms. In such cases we will always seek separate permission from students (aged
13 or over) or parents (up to age 13) regarding what identifiable data can be given.

Date of Birth                                                 House

Name of Parent/Guardian

Having read the statement above, do you give your consent for photographs or other images
to be taken and used? (please tick the appropriate box)
YES, I give my consent for pictures to be taken and used. This includes the following media or
platforms (PLEASE TICK ALL OF THOSE YOU ARE AUTHORISING):
                                              The School website
                                              The school prospectus and similar materials
                                              The School Facebook page
                                              Twitter accounts controlled by the Head and other
                                                staff in their professional role
                                              Instagram accounts controlled by the Head and
                                                other staff in their professional role.
  **Should you decide not to give permission for some platforms, it is easier for the school to
                                decline permission for all photos**
     NO, I do not give my consent for pictures to be taken and used beyond those narrowly
        needed for the school’s core functions.
If withholding permission on behalf of a child under 13, please make your child aware of the
limits you are setting, and of the situations they may need to step back from to help us avoid a
breach e.g. when team or music group or drama cast pictures are done, or group photos on an
educational visit.

Biometrics
I understand that St George’s school will capture and retain the biometric data of such students who
choose to use school paid catering and library facilities, and that this is done by converting a finger
scan into a numerical form. This system takes measurements of your child’s finger and converts
these measurements into a template (a string of numbers), which is then encrypted. The data held
cannot be used to recreate a fingerprint image, nor can it be used in a forensic investigation. An
image of your child’s fingerprint is not stored. The template is used to permit your child to
access to the catering and library services by placing their finger on a scanner at the point of sale or
service. (Please note that this registration also applies to boarders even though meals are included
in termly fees).
Under the GDPR and Protection of Freedoms Act I tick YES                            
to confirm the school has my child’s and my permission
to capture and retain this biometric data for this use

        Acceptable Use of the Pupil Computer System at St George’s School

This policy is applicable to any Information and communication technology that is brought onto
school site. Pupils should be aware that the school will discipline pupils uploading material
associated with St George’s School from a source outside of the school premises.

1.       I will not browse, download or upload material that the school considers offensive or illegal.
If I accidentally come across any such material I will report it immediately to a member of staff. If
I am unsure about any material that I have access to I will seek advice from a member of staff.

2.      I will not attempt to gain unauthorised access to the St George's network or to any other
computer system found on the Internet.
•       I will not attempt to log on using another person's username and password with or without
their permission.
•       I will not attempt to access, view, alter or delete another person's files.
•       In short I will access only my own area of the network using my password. I am responsible
for keeping my password secure, and for ensuring it is changed on a regular basis.

3.     I will remember that anything that is sent out from the St George's school lCT network
represents the school. I will be responsible in my use of the network, including the internet. This
includes the resources I access, material I upload, and the language I use. Offensive and threatening
behaviour/language is not appropriate.

4.     In school I will only use the Internet for educational use. I will not use it to, purchase or sell
goods, for financial gain, or for advertising. Using the Internet for other purposes is only allowed if
you have sought permission from a member of staff.

5.      I will not take information from the Internet and pass it off as my own work.

6.      I will not bring into school any portable storage medium with the intention of placing files
on to the school network unless they are directly lesson related and permission has been granted by
a member of the staff.

7.      I will report any misuse of the school computer system immediately to a member of staff.

8.    I understand that all of my use on the Internet and other related technologies can be
monitored and logged and can be made available to appropriate staff.

9:      I will not use a “proxy server” to access the internet while in school.

I have read and understood the ICT Acceptable Use Policy. I understand that these rules are
designed to keep me safe and that if they are not followed school sanctions will be applied and my
parents/carer may be contacted.
