LANGUAGE DATA

A first language other than English should be recorded where a child was exposed to the language during early development and continues to be exposed to this language in the home or in the community.

If a child was exposed to more than one language (which may include English) during early development the language other than English should be recorded, irrespective of the child’s proficiency in English.

In the case of an older pupil who is no longer exposed to the first language in the home, and who now uses only another language, the pupil or parent can determine which language should be recorded.

Other Language .....(only use if your language is not listed above)

ETHNIC BACKGROUND

Our ethnic background describes how we think of ourselves. This may be based on many things including, for example, our skin colour, language, culture, ancestry or family history. Ethnic background is not the same as nationality or country of birth.

The DfE recommends that those with parental responsibility decide the ethnic background for primary pupils. The Information Commissioner (formerly the Data Protection Register) recommends that young people aged over 11 years old have the opportunity to decide their own ethnic identity. Parents, or those with parental responsibility, are asked to support or advise those children aged over 11 in making this decision, wherever necessary.

Please study the list below and tick ONE box only to indicate the ethnic background of your child.

Section B-MixedWhite and Black CaribbeanWhite and Black AfricanWhite and AsianAny other Mixed background

Section C — Asian or Asian BritishIndianPakistaniBangladeshiAny Other Asian Background

Section D- Black or Black BritishCaribbeanAfricanAny Other Black Background

Section E-Chinese

Section F-Any Other Ethnic Group

I do not wish an Ethnic background to be recorded

RELIGIOUS BACKGROUND

Any information you provide will be used solely to compile statistics on the school careers and experiences of pupils from different ethnic backgrounds, to help ensure that all pupils have the opportunity to fulfil their potential. These statistics will not allow individual pupils to be identified. From time to time the information will be passed on to the Local Authority and the Department for Education and Skills (DfES) to contribute to local and national statistics. The information will also be passed on to future schools.
