Yes
I bet some of you know what is coming next!

School sports day was coming a a close and one of the teachers then gave everyone a lecture on the dangers of uploading pictures of your children to Facebook etc.

No surprises there then, wait it went one step further, we were then told we were not allowed to upload pictures as they were taken on school property.
 
Really. What can they do about it? Take out an injunction? Do you think the school could afford to test the law in court?
 
Oops! I just uploaded nearly 90 images from my sons sports day this week.

Call the cops.

That's ridiculous... perhaps you could cut out/blurr everyone else...! Suppose it'd ruin the picture though.

Schools are far too strict these days.

they can't enforce that lol. I upload plenty of pictures if my kids onto face book.
 
Is that the schools position or the teachers recommendation? You may need to have a chat with the Head, pointing out the data commissions advice about school plays etc.
 
Racing circuits which have commercial interests to worry about specify images can be used for "personal enjoyment only" in writing on the back of their tickets and Flickr, these forums, Facebook, etcetera are still full of images from their events. I can't see a school doing anything if commercial entities don't.
