Dear Mr Walker,

Thank you for your FOI request received on 29 July. You have requested:

"total expenditure by the Office for Standards in Education on Common
Purpose courses for each of the following years: 1997, 1998, 1999, 2000,
2001, 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 to date. Please also
supply a copy of the invoice for each Common Purpose course paid for by
the Office for Standards in Education."

I have checked with the Ofsted Finance and Organisational Learning teams
and they have been unable to trace any expenditure relating courses on
Common Purpose for the years specified, therefore Ofsted do not hold the
information that you have requested.

If you are unhappy with the handling of your request, you may seek an
internal review by writing to:

Deputy Director of Corporate Services,

If you are not content with the outcome of the internal review, you have
the right to apply to the Information Commissioner for a decision as to
whether or not we have complied with our obligations under the Act with
respect to your request. The Information Commissioner can be contacted
