From the age 12...
A young person aged 12 or above is generally considered mature enough to understand and make their own informed decisions. They have a legal right to access their own records, and can allow or prevent access by others, including their parents. However, each case will be individually considered.
Any parental access to a child’s records must be in the child’s best interests.
