- Yes, we can confirm that records of assessments are held in PPRs, but collectively, these would likely be held electronically on the system itself or in school s tracking and monitoring data. We are aiming to be a digital authority so encourage all schools to hold assessments electronically where possible. No paper copies are kept in PPRs, these are all stored electronically. No paper copies are kept in PPRs, these are all stored electronically either within Seemis Progress and Achievement or whole school/class tracking Yes, we can confirm this as per SCARRS (link below) 10.002.014 Pupil Progress Report (PPR) - personal pupil record Termination or leaving date 5 years Destroy Statutory Schools General (Scotland) Regulations 1975 SI 1135/176 reg 10(2) - pupil progress record; retention of pupil records is governed by the The Pupils Educational Records (Scotland) Regulations 2003 SSI 2003/581, reg 4
