Cheshire College South & West 

The protection of learner and staff data is essential for legal compliance but also for Cheshire College South & West’s reputation and operational success. In 2021, Naomi Korn Associates was commissioned to provide Data Protection Officer (DPO) support services for the College.

As part of this service, we deliver remote legal compliance and data protection advice offered through email and phone support. We monitor the Data Protection and FOI inboxes. We handle all FOI, Data Protection and Police Request responses and log all appropriate information. We also keep the College abreast of important changes to data protection legislation, copyright and other legal compliance updates. We implement all necessary changes and manage their contact with the Information Commissioners Office.

Naomi Korn Associates is also responsible for managing and recording data breaches, emergency, or data loss that occur during the College’s opening hours. We provide advice to staff on data protection and legal compliance issues as they arise.

A further aspect of this package is the review of data protection policies and procedure, including updating the College’s Privacy Notice. We also assist staff in completing Data Protection Impact Assessments (DPIAs) and deliver Data Protection training.
