Coronavirus cases amongst school staff

This request has been withdrawn by the person who made it. There may be an explanation in the correspondence below.

Dear Wigan Metropolitan Borough Council,

Please could you provide the rate of confirmed coronavirus cases amongst school staff for each week in November and December.

I would like you to split the figures into primary, secondary and special schools if possible.

In addition, I would like you to split them into staff category: teacher, teaching assistant, support staff and auxiliary staff if possible.

Yours faithfully,

Aisha Latif

Dear Aisha
FOI 11386
I am emailing to confirm the receipt of your recent request for
information to Wigan Council. This has been logged with reference
indicated above and will be forwarded to the relevant department for
action.
We will respond as soon as possible and in most cases no later than 20
working days after the receipt of your request i.e. by 4 February 2021.
The Information Commissioner’s Office has recognised the unprecedented
challenges all are facing during the pandemic and that people may
experience delays when making information rights requests during the
current situation.  This is because the Council’s resources are focused on
ensuring that at risk and vulnerable residents are supported at this time.
 
If you have any comments or questions in the meantime, please direct them
to [1][Wigan Council request email], or in writing to the address below.
The Council does not charge for most FOI requests, but charges may be made
for actual disbursements incurred such as photocopying, printing, postage
and packaging, and only if these charges amount to more than £20.00. If a
charge is to be made, confirmation of the payment due will be given before
the information is provided and payment may be requested prior to the
provision of the information.
Kind regards
Kath Peace
