Dear FOI,

Your point is noted, as you are clearly responding to the latter part of the FOI elsewhere (which I await), can you please clarify that you will be responding to the former part of the request and will be providing copies of correspondence and/or documentation between yourselves and Staffordshire County Council in relation to elective home education from 01/01/2016 to the date of this freedom of information request.

For clarification, this is not in relation to Lord Soley's Home Education bill.

Please redact any sensitive information under S40.

Yours sincerely,

A Thurstan
