Dear Mr Walker

Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002

I refer to your request to Glasgow City Council to provide you with certain information.

1. Has your authority ever found a member of the BNP or any other political Party guilty of a disciplinary offence related to their Party membership whilst teaching in the last three years? If so please give information as to when and how many.

2. Has any parent complained to you regarding the Party membership of any employee or the expression of political views within School classrooms under your authority during the last three years?

3. What safeguards do you currently have in place to prevent members of any political Party promoting their views within Schools?

Please note that we are treating your request as a formal request under Section 1 of the Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002.

You will be contacted again within 20 working days from the date when your request was received.

Yours sincerely

Jackie Henderson
