I live in England, UK. And my teacher is requesting private family information as homework. We're studying the play Romeo and Juliet, and she wants us to ask our parents about their dating experiences. I don't want to do this, she did say she'd be reading them, and it's unclear whether or not she's going to be publicly showing this information. If I deny her request and she attempts to punish me for it, would that be legal? I was looking at Article 8 on the Human Rights Act 1998, wasn't quite sure if that covers it or not.
