question text To ask the Secretary of State for Education, with reference to her Department's training guide video for autumn 2016, whether schools do not need to obtain pupil or parental consent to share information on pupils' nationality collected through the school census; and whether those schools are protected from legal challenge about breaching a duty of confidence. more like this

answer text <p>The submission of the School Census is a statutory requirement placed upon schools under <a href="http://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1996/56/section/537A" target="_blank">Section 537A of the Education Act 1996</a>. Schools therefore have a legal responsibility for collecting certain information, including pupil nationality, from parents which is to be provided to the Department for Education.</p><p> </p><p>As the School Census is a legal requirement, schools do not need to obtain parental or pupil consent for the provision of School Census information to the Department and they are protected from legal challenge that they are breaching a duty of confidence to pupils.</p><p> </p><p>Whilst the return of information via the School Census is a statutory requirement on schools, information on a pupil’s nationality must be recorded as declared by the parent / guardian or pupil. Parents are not obliged to provide nationality data to the school and are able to request that the school record the nationality as refused. This is clearly stated in the <a href="https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/school-census-2016-to-2017-guide-for-schools-and-las" target="_blank">school census guide</a>.</p><p> </p><p>To address any uncertainties, I have placed an information note in the House Libraries.</p>

answer text <p>When a proposal to open a new free school is first submitted, it must include a proposed published admission number (PAN). The Secretary of State may approve the proposal on condition that a different PAN is agreed, for example to reflect a change in local circumstances, such as higher pupil numbers. We would expect the school to consult the local community where a change is proposed.</p> more like this
