19 April 2017, Education (College)
The complainant has requested information from the Office for Standards of Education (“Ofsted”) relating to the number of complaints it has received over the last four years for a number of schools. The Commissioner’s decision is that Ofsted has incorrectly applied section 33(3) (public audit functions) of the FOIA to the request. The Commissioner requires Ofsted to take issue a fresh response to the request which does not make reference to section 33(3) of the FOIA. Ofsted must take this step within 35 calendar days of the date of this decision notice. Failure to comply may result in the Commissioner making written certification of this fact to the High Court pursuant to section 54 of the Act and may be dealt with as a contempt of court.
FOI 33: Upheld
