All associated documents given to the EP are shredded once the report is finalised with the school/parents/legal guardians.
CYP records will be kept up till August 2026.
All work undertaken is confidential. Information is only shared with the specific consent of the parent/legal guardian. Further details regarding confidentiality can be found in the British Psychological Society Practice Guidelines and August 2017.
