5. The Single Central Record David We've spoken to our contact at Ofsted and they are keen to get to the bottom of this for you. From Ofsted's point of view the Inspectors should not be imposing a particular method for schools to hold CRB/List 99 data and they are also concerned about how the data on a spreadsheet is transferred to Ofsted. Ofsted would very much appreciate, if you have no objection, knowing the name of the schools who have had problems so that they can give some targeted guidance to those impection teams.

9. Reporting To Parents By September 2008 all secondary schools will be expected to provide information to parents covering achievement, progress, attendance, behaviour and special needs, on a timely and frequent basis – this should be at least once per term. By September 2010 all secondary schools will need to offer parents real-time access to this information (including the opportunity for secure online access) wherever they are and whenever they want. Primary schools must also meet the basic requirement by September 2010 and the real time requirement by 2012. DCSF Press Notice 2008/0006

10. Reporting To Parents Must include information regarding: Achievement Progress Attendance Behaviour Special needs Fronter: We are working with Fronter to ensure that parents will be able to access data from the VLE as well as WS Data without needing to have two separate logons

14. Enrolment Dates Formerly when a child moved from nursery to reception, regulations stipulated that the enrolment date should be changed to the date when the child joined the reception class Regulations have changed Regulations now state that the enrolment date should be left unchanged PASAPP used to update the enrolment date automatically when a child moves from nursery to reception and store the original date in a field called Date Started In Nursery PASAPP has changed This will no longer happen and you mustn’t update the Start Date manually. We have made it harder to do this and strongly recommend that you get a new version before you do your class changes and transfers
