Subpart 5 - Teacher Liability Protection. Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA)

Family Policy Compliance Office (FPCO) Home The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) (20 U.S.C. § 1232g; 34 CFR Part 99) is a Federal law that protects the privacy of student education records. The law applies to all schools that receive funds under an applicable program of the U.S. Department of Education. FERPA gives parents certain rights with respect to their children's education records.

These rights transfer to the student when he or she reaches the age of 18 or attends a school beyond the high school level. Students to whom the rights have transferred are "eligible students. " Parents or eligible students have the right to inspect and review the student's education records maintained by the school. Schools may disclose, without consent, "directory" information such as a student's name, address, telephone number, date and place of birth, honors and awards, and dates of attendance.

Introduction Top The debate concerning the ethics of education that took place in the United States at the beginning of the 20th century has gained renewed, worldwide interest in the past two decades. The contemporary debate targets two overlapping sides of the role morality plays in education: the moral behaviour of the teacher and the morality children learn in school. In 2001, Education International (EI), officially entered this debate when the Declaration on Professional Ethics (DPE) was adopted by EI’s 3rd World Congress held in Jomtien, Thailand. The document was further updated at its 4th World Congress in Porto Alegre, Brazil in 2004.

The DPE is mainly intended as a blueprint for EI affiliates' own guidelines. Its objectives are: to raise consciousness about the norms and ethics of the teaching profession; to help increase job satisfaction in education; to enhance status and self-esteem, and; to increase respect for the profession in communities.

Essential to these goals is the protection of freedom to learn and to teach and the guarantee of equal educational opportunity for all.
