Purpose
Information about your child will be provided to the Council as part of your consent with the provider you chose.
The information is entered into the council’s provider portal in order to assess entitlement and communicate
securely with the provider. The information is used to provide early years funding (further information can be found
at www.childcarechoices.gov.uk). Registered Ofsted providers can provide early years services for children in
Harrow under the early years foundation stage statutory framework (EYFS) which sets standards for the learning,
development and care of children from birth to 5 years old.
Harrow Council requires the information to assist your child to receive their Early Education Funding Entitlement
which is distributed to the chosen provider.
Information is stored within the provider portal and may be used for the prevention and detection of fraud and or
criminal offences and or complying with another law such as the Health and Safety Act 1974.
Types of information to be shared
The information that is shared by the provider includes:
Childs personal information such as name, address, photograph (if required) date of birth
Name, address, ID or descriptions/photos of parents or guardians for the purpose of identification including
national insurance numbers if required for the purpose stated
Characteristics, such as ethnicity, language, nationality, country of birth and pupil premium eligibility;
Medical information, for incident response or as part of the 2 year check;
Special educational needs information, whether on an EHC plan or support;
Assessment information, such as the 2 year old progress check, and the EYFS profile outcomes at the end
of the Reception year;

Council using a secure email solution (Egress). The council agrees to securely hold parent/carer/children’s data in
accordance with our Information Governance and Security Policy and data retention policy.
How long we store the information for

information. This is for record purposes and to deal with any enquiries or complaints during this period. After the
retention period expires we will delete the information held unless there is a basis in law to retain data for a longer
period. If this occurs we, or the provider will contact you as the parent or guardian of the child to make you aware of
this.
