ANDREW RURAL ACADEMY’S FOIP NOTIFICATION

Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act (FOIP Act)

Collection of Personal Information Notice under s. 34 of the FOIP Act

The FOIP Act, which came into effect for school boards on September 1, 1998, sets controls and standards on how public bodies, such as school boards, collect, use and disclose personal information that is in their custody or under their control. The FOIP Act requires that school boards collect personal information directly from individuals the information is about, that these individuals be provided with the legal authority for the collection, be explained the purpose of the collection and how the information will be used, and be provided a contact person should they have any questions relating to this activity.

• The information collected on this form as part of the school registration process is personal information as referred to in the FOIP Act. This personal information is collected pursuant to the provisions of the School Act and its regulations (e.g. for the establishment of a student record, determination of residency) and pursuant to section 33(c) of the FOIP Act as the collection is related directly to and is necessary to a school board’s obligation to provide students with an education program that meets their needs and to provide a safe and secure school environment (e.g. program placement, determination of eligibility and/or suitability for provincial or federal funding, contact and health related information in the event of problems or emergencies). Personal information may also be provided to the Minister of Education for the purpose of carrying out programs, activities, or policies under his administration (e.g. research, statistical analysis).

• the use of students’ names in honour rolls, work ethic (listings), graduation ceremonies, program enrollment, scholarship or other awards within the school or school charters and at school sponsored events such as annual awards night. This information may be included in school newsletters, yearbooks, school/charter websites and similar publications

• the use of students’ names and academic information necessary for determining eligibility or suitability for provincial, federal or other types of awards or scholarships in the event the board applies on a student’s behalf

• the use of students’ names, related contact information and telephone numbers for absenteeism verification

Where individual students are identified or interviewed and the material will be used outside the school a separate and specific consent will be required. You will be contacted prior to this event taking place. Please note that photos and/or videos of school activities that are open to the general public may be taken and used for purposes within and outside of the school.

• the taking of photos/videos of classroom or other school activities by the school board where the material will be used within the school. Where individual students are identified or interviewed and the material will be used outside the school, a separate and specific consent will be required. You will be contacted prior to this event taking place.

The school will attempt to contact the custodial parent and inform them of the situation.

You must be aware that the school and its personnel will take responsible actions should an incident occur, but we may not be able to make phone contact with the custodial parent, and we are not legally allowed to prevent any parent from accessing their child. If you would like further clarification on this matter, please contact the School Principal.
