Single Central Record Checklist, KCSIE 2026 edition, by HeadteacherChat

Resource details

The Single Central Record Checklist, September 2026 edition (KCSIE 2026) sets out what the single central record must hold under Keeping Children Safe in Education 2026 (paragraphs 347 to 357), who must be on it, and a termly audit sheet you can show governors. Designed to be run in about an hour with your office manager.

September 2026 edition. Checked against KCSIE 2026 on 6 September 2026. It replaces our September 2024 and September 2025 checklists.

The main change for 2026 is who needs an enhanced DBS check with barred list information. The supervision exemption has been removed, so volunteers who teach, train, instruct or supervise children on more than three days in a 30-day period, or overnight, are now in regulated activity (paragraphs 383 to 386). The checklist shows what that means for your record.

What's inside

  • Who must be on the record
  • What must be recorded for each person
  • Volunteers under the 2026 rules
  • Governors and trustees
  • A termly audit sheet
  • Trust-wide records

Format: editable Word document with paragraph references so you can check the wording yourself.

Useful for: headteachers, DSLs, school business leaders, office and HR managers, and trust compliance leads.
