How to make an FOI request

 

You must make a Freedom of Information (FOI) request in writing. You can do it by:

• letter
• email
• social media
• online form 
• If you cannot make your request in writing because of a disability, please contact  the school. We will support  you to make the request another way - for example over the phone.

 

 

Before you make a request

You might not need to make a Freedom of Information (FOI) request if information  has:

• already published the information
• previously responded to an FOI request

 

You can also email or phone the school  to ask if we've  already published the information or responded to an FOI request.

 

What to include

You should give:

• your name 
• a contact postal or email address
• a detailed description of the information you want - for example, you might want all information held on a subject, or just a summary

You can ask for information in a particular format, such as:

• paper or electronic copies of information
• audio format
• large print

When you’ll get a response

We will send you the information within 20 working days of receiving your request, there  may be longer response time  during school holidays.

 

When your information will be shared

No details will be shared and your information will not be used for any other purpose.

 

Costs
