Dear Ms Das,

Re: Freedom of Information Act Request ref: LBH/8780519

Thank you for your request for information received on 31 May 2019, in
which you asked for the following:

-How many pupils have received online tutoring at home that was paid for
by the council between September 1 2017 and August 31 2018? Please
indicate how many children were primary school age and how many children
were secondary school age.

Note: I am requesting information relating to ALL children who receive
some or all of their schooling at home. This would include those who are
electively home-schooled, as well as those who have some or all of their
classes at home as part of their mainstream schooling, or as part of
alternative provision.

For these children, I am requesting information relating to online
learning. This would include children who receive some or all of their
tuition over Skype (or similar services), or using e-learning tutoring
tools. It would include instances where the council has hired a member of
staff specifically to carry out this online tuition, as well as instances
where an external company is being paid to provide the service.

-Please provide the same information (total number of pupils, broken down
by primary/secondary) for the same period (Sept 1 - Aug 31) for each of
these years: 2016/17, 2015/16, 2014/15 and 2013/14.

-How much was spent on providing this online tutoring? Please provide the
figure in pounds for each of the school years listed above (2013/14 -
2017/18), broken down by school year.

-Please provide the name(s) of the organisation(s) providing the online
tutoring for home-schooled children.

My response is as follows:

Haringey Council has not provided or paid for online tutoring for any
home-school pupils for the periods shown above from 2013 to the present
day.

If you are unhappy with how we have responded to your request you can ask
us to conduct an Internal Review. If so, please contact the [1]Feedback
and Information Team. (Please note you should do so within two months of
this response.)

Yours sincerely,
