Dear Cabinet Office,

I would like the online verbal and numerical civil service test sample sizes, means, and standard deviations by fine ethnicity for the most recent round of testing (i.e., for the data you still have on file and have not yet deleted).

Yours faithfully,

John Fuerst

Dear FOI Team Mailbox,

I was asked to clarify:

"Could you please explain precisely what you mean by "the most recent round of testing"?"

I would like data (sample sizes, means, & standard deviations) for the most recent year or twelve-month period for which data is available. If data is not available for a full year (e.g., (August) of 2018 to (August) of 2019), then I would like what data is available within the most recent year.

Alternatively, if that is not clear, I would like all the data (sample sizes, means, & standard deviations for the civil service numerical and verbal reasoning tests) you have available that can be provided, in order of most recent to less recent data, given the budget constraints involved in a FOI request.

Yours sincerely,

John Fuerst

Dear FOI Team Mailbox,

Dear Cabinet Office,

I would like numerical and verbal reasoning test scores (with sample sizes and standard deviations) by ethnicity for the most recent year of testing (e.g., spring 2018- spring 2019). If you do not have data for a full year of testing, I would like what scores you have starting with the most recent data and working backward.

Also, could you clarify what scores you have and for what time frame? I could then tailor my request accordingly.

Yours sincerely,

John Fuerst
