Hi, this is from
page 150 of the STL handbook
AC 1.3 Legislation and regulations governing the licensing of software to early years settings, schools, college and FE institutions exist to ensure that information stored and communicated through ICT systems is kept safe, and that pupils and staff use equipment safely. School and college managers need to have policies and procedures in place, while employees need to be aware of legalities and of their responsibilities, as well as how they should keep pupils safe. The main legislation is:
- software licensing agreements
- Computer Misuse Act 1990
- Copyright and Rights in Databases Regulations 1997
- Health and Safety at Work Act 1974 and EU Health and Safety Directive 87/391
- Data Protection Act 1984 and 1998 - which is, as of 2018 GDPR
- Freedom of Information Act 2000
Hope this helps xx
