Requesting School Records

Perfect!  Thank you very much.

Can anyone tell me the verbage to use when requesting school records for their child.

This particular school in Sweden does not have a 'form' to fill out to request.  I want to make sure they give me everything.

I am asking for any and all:

testing results, consultant reports and general school records.

Is there something I am missing to ask for.  The people in charge of this school are sly ones and I am sure I would need to be specific in my request.

My intention is to have my child's full file in my possession to date.

Thank you for any help.
