PRIMARY SCHOOL ANNUAL CONSENT FORM 2002/03

Photography and the use of images

 

Dear Parent or Guardian

During the course of the school year there may be opportunities to publicise some of the activities that your child is involved in. This may well involve filming or photographing children for use in the local media. As a school, we welcome these opportunities and hope that you do too. There may also be occasions when we arrange photography for our own purposes, such as displays and school brochures.

Photography or filming will only take place with the permission of the head teacher, and under the supervision of a teacher. When filming or photography is carried out by the news media, children will only be named if there is a particular reason to do so (eg they have won a prize), and home addresses will never be given out.

We believe that positive publicity benefits all involved with the school. Nevertheless, we will not involve your child without your consent. Could you please take a few minutes to fill in the form below. Images of your child held by the school can be viewed upon request. You may withdraw consent at any time.

·        By photographers acting on behalf of the school for use in displays and publicity material. (Images will be used for a maximum of 2 years and will then be destroyed.)
