Consent Management

With the ever changing legal framework surrounding online privacy, MySchool fully understands the needs of schools to be able to manage consent for publication, and participation in certain subject areas (i.e Religious studies, Yearbook, Website etc). Myschool facilitates collecting this information and storing within the Legal tab. If you need to ask permission for outings or events then use the permission tool.

How to access

To create the consents, it would be under Administer/Advanced options/Consent Management. These consents are collected using the questionnaire tool.

Create a new consent by clicking on the button in the bottom right hand corner.

Configure and collect

The consent type will appear both internally and externally, so be clear when naming the consents. After you can decide whether these consents are active or not. They will be removed from publishing.

Determine when the consent is needed, options exist with Yearly or upon enrolment, using the admissions formbuilder. The description will appear as a tool tip when consulting the consents within the student profile.

Setting the questionnaire

Use the section type, confirm existing data, and find the relevant consent in the confirm fields. Choose the whole school or newly processed class, depending on your target audience.
