I know this will pass by most of you completely, but for my colleagues
in Scotland there is a rather worrying story in today's Daily Mail.
It appears that the Scottish Child Law Centre (SCLC) are about to start
touring schools telling everyone that pupils over 12 can stop their
parents seeing their educational records. Admittedly, the text of the
article (and the comment) is fairly confusing. Having looked previously
at the new regs (and again today !), our reading is completely the
reverse, i.e. parents now have a right of access to educational records
with the exception of sensitive data.
Has anyone else seen the story or had a thought about the regs ?
