Accident and incident records I think is 21 years..no longer!.....not sio sure whether there is a speicifed time for children's files - do you mean records of their activities, progress, development, etc. or personal information?

apparantly pg 16 onwards in ' the toolkit for schools retention schedule' is what Early Years settings need to follow.
