145.Subsection (3) provides that consent given by a parent to a school or college to process their child’s biometric data can be withdrawn at any time. Subsection (4) provides that consent must be given, and (if withdrawn), withdrawn, in writing. Once consent is withdrawn, the proprietors of the school or college must stop processing the child’s biometric data. The Data Protection Act 1998 will, in such circumstances, require that any personal data held by the school or college for the purposes of a biometric identification system must be destroyed; the school or college should do so as soon as practicable.
