Dear Ms Drane

I refer to the above and your email dated 4 August. I have contacted the
relevant services and now provide the following response to your request
for information relating to agency staff in schools.

Can you please provide me with a breakdown of money spent on agency staff
in complex, special needs schools and pupil referral units in Leeds from
September 2013 until July 2014?

Please see attached

I hope this information is useful to you, however if you are dissatisfied
with this response then you have a right to appeal to an independent
officer within children’s services. On appeal, your request will be
re-examined and an assessment made as to whether the requirements of the
Act have been adhered to. Should you wish to follow this course of action
then please address your concerns in writing to Moin Patel, Knowledge and
Technology Team, 10th Floor East, Merrion House, Leeds, LS2 8DT or by
email at [1][email address].

You also have a right under Section 50 of the Freedom of Information Act
to ask the Information Commissioner to take a decision as to whether we
have met with our obligations under the Act.  The Commissioner has made it
clear however that he expects all applicants to exhaust internal appeals
procedures prior to making such an application. Should you wish to contact
the Commissioner’s Office then you can write to the following address:

            Office of the Information Commissioner,

            Wycliffe House,

            Water Lane,

            Wilmslow,

            Cheshire,

            SK9 5AF.

You may also contact the Commissioner via his website at www.ico.gov.uk

I trust that this is self-explanatory although if you have any queries
then please don’t hesitate to contact me on 0113 3950782, or by return
email.

Kind regards
