The child record Regulation 15 actually requires

Regulation 15 sets out what has to be on file for every child: full name and date of birth, start and end dates, parent or guardian contact details, who's authorised to collect them, illness, disability, allergy, and additional-need information, the child's registered medical practitioner, immunisation records where provided, and — specifically — written parental consent for appropriate emergency medical treatment. That last item is easy to assume exists and expensive to discover missing at the moment it's actually needed.

Authorised collectors need their own clear procedure, not just a list of names: what happens with an unauthorised collector, a late collection, a non-collection, or someone who turns up to collect a child but doesn't seem fit to. An authorised collector also isn't necessarily a registered parent or guardian account — a grandparent or family friend on the collection list is a distinct category from who has app or portal access to the child's record.

Allergy and additional-need records need to go further than a flag. The condition, the actual risk, the prevention measures, the emergency response, any medication involved, and what staff are specifically meant to do — not a general note that a child "has allergies" with the detail assumed to live in someone's memory.

Bloomffy's child record carries the GP name and phone, an immunisation record, and a distinct flag for emergency medical consent specifically, separate from a general enrollment signature — because Regulation 19(4) treats photo/recording consent as its own separate consent too, and conflating "signed the enrollment form" with "consented to this specific thing" is a real gap the schema is built to avoid. Authorised collectors are kept as their own table, deliberately separate from the parent/guardian relationship, and each child's allergens carry a severity rather than a single free-text description, so the cross-check against the week's menu has something structured to actually compare against.
