Overview

SchoolWorkSpace provides software services to Schools and Education Establishments. These services include Forms & Surveys, Class Layouts and Homework.

To provide these services an accurate list of parents/contacts, staff and students is required. SchoolWorkSpace integrates with Eduspot Teachers2Parents, Groupcall Messenger and/or Groupcall Xporter and maintains a secure copy of required data within the SchoolWorkSpace data store.

Use of Data

The Use of Data policy is provided for schools to ensure that, as data controllers they have the ability to share data, and that they consider there to be appropriate measures in place, ensuring that the data is held securely and confidentially.

SchoolWorkSpace and its suppliers will be acting as ‘data processors’ as defined by GDPR. SchoolWorkSpace has taken all reasonable measures to ensure the safety and security of the personal information, and continues to review these measures on an on-going basis.

Data Security

The information from your school is held inside the SchoolWorkSpace web platform, which is hosted in Microsoft’s Azure platform in the UK South territory. The data in Azure is protected from exposure by multiple layers of fire-walling, authentication and physical access control.

Data Retention

When a trial or subscription expires and a school is no longer a customer, after 2 months the school will be eligible for deletion and set as pendingDelete then in the next delete cycle the school data will be deleted. This can be sooner on request. Obviously account level information will be retained e.g. subscription history, invoices etc.

Your rights - Accessing, erasing and updating your personal information

In most cases the personal data in SchoolWorkSpace is imported from the school's MIS so corrections or deletions are simply a matter of updating the source and this delete/edit will flow in the next data sync. Most other cases in SchoolWorkSpace the school is in full control of the data and its all shown on the screen as the software is used.
