FOI - Expenditure on equality, diversity, and inclusivity.
Dear The Royal Latin School, Buckingham,
I wish to make an FOI request, as set out under the Freedom of Information Act 2000.
Please can your organisation provide the following information:
a) The number of roles in your association (expressed in numbers of FTE), that are mainly or exclusively focussed on issues of equality, diversity, or inclusivity. For example, this could include (amongst other guises) “EDI officers” or “diversity and inclusion project managers” but would not include general HR managers.
b) Either a) the pay band of each of these roles, or b) the combined total salaries for these roles. Whichever measure is more in accordance with your data preferences.
c) In the past 12 months the number of staff days across your organisation which have been committed to attending equality training programmes, whether internally run or with external consultants. (staff days = duration of the training programme multiplied by the number of staff in attendance for the course). If unable to provide please mark as N/A in your return.
Please can this information be returned to me within 20 working days.
If your organisation does not hold information in relation to any of the letters please file as N/A and provide the rest of the information that you do hold.
Yours faithfully,
Art Lightfoot
(80 Arrol House, London, SE1 6QL)

You can see the disregard the school has for GDPR when you see the response to the following FOI:
https://www.whatdotheyknow.com/request/d...
where the School's HT, in spite of having had GDPR training and knowing full well he was in breach of the Regulations, carried about with him personal and identifying information such as, inter alia, staff addresses, bank and payroll details in his briefcase which was then stolen. His primary concern, as can be seen from the correspondence with Staff and the Governors, was not the data breach itself, but the loss of his favourite briefcase! The Governors, of course being asleep on the job, failed to scrutinise or discipline him for this breach.
