Early Years Privacy Notice

Details of any organisations with which LCC and DfE share data are contained on LCC and DfE websites, with links from the Privacy Notices.

These websites are updated to reflect any changes in organisations.

Early Years Providers are required to issue a Privacy Notice to every parent.
The Early Years Provider can provide the Privacy Notice to parents at the same time as other communications. For example a parent might receive the Privacy Notice as part of a brochure or induction pack, and it could be posted on the notice board or the provision’s own website for parents. It is anticipated that parents should generally be able to request to see personal information under the Subject Access Provisions (S.7) of the Data Protection Act on behalf of their children.

What are the benefits?
By providing complete and accurate data through the Early Years’ Census / Headcount data collections, we contribute to the continuity of care, learning and support of children within Liverpool. For example, submitting accurate and timely headcount data ensures accuracy of funding for individual children’s Early Years Funding for 2, 3 & 4 year old children.

Admissions Privacy Notice

The information provided on your online application will be processed in accordance with the requirements of the 1998 Data Protection Act.

It will be treated as confidential and will only be used for the purposes of the provision of Education Services. In connection with this purpose, the information may also be processed preventing any fraud or criminal offence or to ensure the health, safety and welfare of any child.

In pursuit of these legitimate purposes, the information may be shared with other admitting authorities to ensure that parents/guardians do not hold on to more than one offer of a place. The information may also be shared with any organisation legitimately investigating allegations of fraud, criminal offences or child protection.
