Wolfie Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 (edited) 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?

Guest Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 (edited) Hope this link works - it's ages since I've attached anything http://www.rms-gb.org.uk/resources/94 apparantly pg 16 onwards in ' the toolkit for schools retention schedule' is what Early Years settings need to follow.
