Number of staff by school
Dear University of St Andrews,
I would like to request the total number of teaching staff and non-academic staff in each school (Physics and Astronomy, International Relations, History, etc.) or the closest statistic available.
I would also like the total number of postgraduate students in each school.
Yours faithfully,
Tom Groves

Dear Mr Groves,
Further to my acknowledgement below, while processing your enquiry a few
queries have arisen in terms of how to define the data being asked for and
I would be grateful if you could clarify a few points please to ensure
that you are supplied with the information that you require:
1. Are you looking for staff numbers presented as ‘headcount’ or
‘Full Time Equivalent’?
2. How are you defining ‘teaching staff’? Academic staff fall into
one of the following categories:
a. Academic (teaching & research);
b. Academic (teaching only); and
c. Academic (research only)
This request for additional information is made under Section 1(3) of the
Freedom of Information (Scotland) Act 2002. Please note that under
Section 10(1)(b) of the Act, the University has 20 working days after
receipt of the additional information by the University in which to comply
with your request.
Your request will therefore be held pending until I hear from you further.
Yours sincerely,
June
