Sample Video Consent Forms (if not provided by school/district)

For students to legally appear on camera, they must have a release on file with the school. Check with your school or district to verify that appropriate permissions are on file from the parents/guardians/families of students and from adults who appear in any video recording, including video captured in an online setting.

If the appropriate permissions are not on file with your school or district, you may use/adapt the sample consent forms provided for your reference on the ECE CalFTPA website. Check with your preparation program for other specific information (e.g., district requirements) that may be required to include in the consent forms you use for completion of the ECE CalFTPA. You may also translate the sample consent forms into languages other than English, if needed. Retain the permissions in your own files according to the protocol of the school or district where you recorded the video and for as long as you plan to use the video for educative purposes.
