Thank you again for taking the time to contact us.

Sent request to General Teaching Council for England again, using a new contact address.

Stephen Goldsby, General Teaching Council for England

Dear Mr MacLean

I write in response to your Freedom of Information request, dated 19 June
2008, in which you request details of the total expenditure by the General
Teaching Council (for England) on 'Common Purpose' courses and any
invoices resulting from these courses.

The GTC has not used 'Common Purpose' courses and therefore there is no
expenditure or invoice documentation to disclose to you.

Yours Sincerely

Stephen Goldsby
