I understand that, and I have read the clause very carefully. However, I have also read Clause 57. I find the Connexions service just as worrying. A local contractor or local school company can provide that sort of information. However, Clause 57 clearly states: "““Relevant information about a pupil or student … must be provided by the responsible person to a person involved in the provision of services in pursuance of section 54””."
It goes on to say that the ““responsible person”” can mean the governing body, the local education authority, the proprietor of an independent school or whatever. This flow of information seems to include everyone concerned, whether within schools, the local authority or what replaces the Connexions service.
