Please note that these are templates that you should adapt according to the needs of your setting. All information is correct at the date of publishing. Settings have the responsibility to ensure they are up to date with legislation in between each published update of the templates (usually January and July each year). We appreciate all settings are unique, so we recommend you read through each template carefully before making appropriate changes. The templates are in Word format so they are easy to personalise and brand.
