Interestingly, I think the position in the UK is very different. Any work
produced by students for school, belongs to the institution.
So schools are at liberty to do anything they like with students' work,
though if nor wanted by the school students are usually at liberty to take
it away once it is no longer required (e.g. For exam moderation).
