Hi everyone,
I have a query on parental access to student academic records.
We are a general FE College with students from 14 to 90+ years of age
and both state and privately funded.
The Education (pupil information) (England) Regulations seem to give the
parent a right of access to a childs educational record. It 'appears'
to consider this as a person of 'compulsory school age' which I think is
still to age 16 at the moment.
My take on this is that we could provide parents access to their childs
record up to the age of 17 when it then becomes a matter for DPA and a
student to agree that access.
Am I correct in this?
Can anyone point me to some specific policy web links?
Thank you,
Jon
