This notice is intended to provide information about how the Central London Teaching School Hub will use or “process” personal data about individuals including current, past and prospective NQT’s (referred to in this notice as “NQT’s”).

The data controller for personal information held by TSH is United Learning Trust (ULT). ULT is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO). The registration number is Z7415170.

The Company Secretary, Alison Hussain, is responsible for ensuring that ULT complies with the Data Protection Law. She can be contacted on [email protected] or 01832 864538.

The TSH is responsible for ensuring that the TSH complies with ULT’s policies and procedures in relation to Data Protection. They can be contacted on 02074793900.

ULT has in place technical and organisational measures that ensure a level of security appropriate to the sensitive nature of the personal data that we process. For further information regarding how we keep personal data secure please refer to our security of personal data policy.

Central London Teaching School Hub and United Learning Trust collect, create and hold personal information relating to NQT’s and may also receive information about them from local authority and/or the Department for Education (DfE).

Registration of an NQT on the NQT Manager software requires the Appropriate Body to collect an NQT’s personal data (including identifiers such as name, date of birth, national insurance number, employment contracts and remuneration details, qualifications and absence information) and contact details (including name and email address) of their mentor and induction tutor. Central London Teaching School Hub uses NQT Manager to register NQTs and gather assessment forms for their Induction year in accordance with the DfE’s Statutory Guidance. This is an online system created and managed by Evolution Software. Collecting and using information in this way is lawful because the process is required in accordance with the DfE’s Statutory Guidance. We will not share information about the NQT, their school, Induction Tutors or Mentors with third parties without their consent unless the law or DfE Statutory Guidance allows us to. We are required, in accordance with DfE Statutory Guidance, to pass on some of the data collected through NQT Manager: the Department for Education (DfE) and TRA in order to inform them of NQT Starters, Leavers, Passes and Failures, other Appropriate Bodies in order to obtain previous records and/or assessments.
