I would be concerned about having students sign up for their own Spotify
accounts.
On the legal terms and conditions page
<https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/end-user-agreement/>, it says you need to
be 18 or be 13 or older with a parent's permission.
The Spotify Privacy Policy
<https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/privacy-policy/> specifically says it is
not for children under 13.
See below for the text from their privacy policy.
Also, are the audiobooks on Spotify there legally?

I think we should be concerned about student privacy issues.
Here is an SLJ Article from Dr. Kristen Mattson.

EXCERPT FROM SPOTIFY PRIVACY POLICY
11. Children

With the exception of Spotify Kids, a separate Spotify application
available in certain markets, the Spotify Service is not directed to
children under the age of 13 years. The Spotify Service is also not offered
to children whose age makes it illegal to process their personal data or
requires parental consent for the processing of their personal data under
the GDPR or other local law.

We do not knowingly collect personal data from children under 13 years or
under the applicable age limit (the “Age Limit”).* If you are under the Age
Limit, please do not use the Spotify Service, and do not provide any
personal data to us.*

If you are a parent of a child under the Age Limit and become aware that
your child has provided personal data to Spotify, please contact us using
the ‘Contact Us’ form on the Privacy Center
<https://www.spotify.com/privacy/plain>, and you may request exercise of
your applicable rights detailed in Section 3 ‘Your rights and your
preferences: Giving you choice and control’
<https://www.spotify.com/us/legal/privacy-policy/#s3> of this Policy.

If we learn that we have collected the personal data of a child under the
age of 13 years, we will take reasonable steps to delete the personal data.
This may require us to delete the Spotify account for that child.
