When a student transfers to another public school in Nova Scotia (one that is not their feeder school), it is necessary for programming that the cumulative and any confidential record be provided to the new school.
Upon receipt of a completed Request for Transfer of Student Records, the original school must retain a copy of the cumulative and any confidential record. The school sends the original(s) or transfers the data electronically to the requesting public school. Upon receipt of acknowledgement that the cumulative and any confidential record was received, the student’s previous school must securely shred the photocopies or delete electronic records subject to school board records retention schedules.
If appropriate written consent for the transfer cannot be obtained from the parent through reasonable efforts, the principal should seek advice from the board’s central administration regarding the transfer of the cumulative and any confidential record.
