Student Records Privacy

Student Records Privacy refers to the legal protection of students' personal information held by educational institutions. This includes grades, attendance, health records, and disciplinary actions. Laws such as the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) in the United States ensure that students and their families have the right to access these records and control who can see them. The goal is to safeguard sensitive information from unauthorized access, ensuring students' privacy and data security within educational environments. This helps promote trust and integrity in the educational system.
