Freedom of Information

The Freedom of Information Act 2000 came into force fully on 1 January 2005. There is now a legal right for any person to ask a school for access to information held by that school. All schools must have in place a Freedom of Information Publication Scheme.

Model Freedom of Information Schemes can be downloaded from the Information Commissioner's Office
Guidance on Freedom of Information in Schools can be found on the Teachernet website
Further information on the Freedom of Information Publication Scheme on the DCFS website.

Please Contact the Governor Support Team if you need any assistance.
