an interesting question - we can access our medical records but don't think about our school records.
My guess is that records if they exist are only available to the person involved.
I sent for my college records some years ago and I just got a short note showing what grades I got - nothing I didn't know already.
A teacher friend tell me that everything about a child is recorded nowadays - test results - any disciplinary issues, however minor. Don't know how long these records are kept or if they are ever made available to the child/parents.
