agree  Anjo Sterringa: or 'for the text' (I hate herein). Yes, responsibility and not liability, yes, probably you are right to include 'assume'. Although 'cannot be held responsible' is very common as well (a mix between your and Xenia's answer)

The Ministry of Education declines responsibility for the content of this document.


Explanation:
(1) 'Decline' is a standard negative collocation with 'responsibility'.
(2) The document is a transcript or a degree diploma. 'Text' doesn't have much meaning here.
