Inherited Suppliers and Systems

How to remove inherited suppliers or systems

Overview

If your school is part of a trust you may have suppliers and systems in your RoPA that have been subscribed to you by the trust. These are referred to as inherited suppliers and systems.

If your school leaves the trust your RoPA will still show these inherited suppliers and systems.

You should review your RoPA and check to see if you still need to subscribe to these suppliers and systems or if you need to remove them.

Schools now have the facility to do this without having to contact GDPRiS
