Under the freedom of information act please can you provide a copy of all email chains between the CEO of your Trust and Priestley College (a college in Warrington in Cheshire that is part of another academy trust called The Challenge Academy Trust) between the 1st April 2023 and present. I understand that you will need to redact personal information and also potentially other information.

Additionally, under the freedom of information act please can you provide a copy of all email chains between the CEO of your Trust and James Gresty (James is the principal of Priestley College) between the 1st April 2023 and present. I understand that you will need to redact personal information and also potentially other information. Please include emails sent to James’s work email as well as James’s personal email as long as they were sent from the CEO’s work email address.

Please note that if you choose to withhold/refuse to disclose any of this information then you will also be required to do the following:

1. Confirm which exemption under the freedom of information act that you are relying on in order to withhold the requested information.

Our Data Protection Officer advises this request is therefore technically
invalid, referring to Section 8 of the FOI Act (below);

 

In most cases you should be able to consider requests without reference to
the requesters identify. However, under section 8(1)(b) if you have reason
to believe the requester hasn’t given their real name you can enquire
about the requesters identity.

For example, if the requester fails to provide a name, cannot be
identified from the name provided or is using an obvious pseudonym, then
their request won’t meet the requirements of section 8(1)(b) and will be
technically invalid.

 

Please do reply if you can provide further information, and we will
respond accordingly.

 

Kind regards,

 

Cassie Taylor

Trust Finance Officer & Data Protection Lead
