Within fifteen school days of receiving a written request by a parent for disclosure of a pupil’s educational record, the head teacher of a maintained school and of a special school not maintained by a local authority must make it available for inspection, free of charge, to the parent.

Within fifteen school days of receiving a written request by a parent for a copy of a pupil’s educational record, the head teacher of such a school must give the parent a copy of it on payment of such fee (not exceeding the cost of supply), if any, as the governing body may prescribe.

In every case where the pupil is under consideration for admission to another school (including an independent school) or to an institution of further education or any other place of education or training, the head teacher must transfer the pupil’s educational record to the responsible person, free of charge, if that person so requests, within fifteen school days of receiving the request.

The record supplied under paragraph (3) must not include the results of any assessment of the pupil’s achievements.
