Dear Mr Ferguson,

RE: Freedom of Information Request

Thank you for your letter dated 13 July 2011 which was received by The
Learning Trust on 14 July 2011. I acknowledge receipt of your request for
information. I should firstly point out that The Learning Trust is not a
"public authority" under the terms of the Freedom of Information Act 2000
("the Act").

The Learning Trust is a private company limited by guarantee which carries
out the majority of the functions of Hackney Council as a Local Education
Authority under a Contract entered into pursuant to a Direction of the
Secretary of State dated 31^st July 2002.

The Learning Trust was incorporated in May 2002 for the sole purpose of
carrying out the functions transferred pursuant to that Direction from
1^st August 2002. There is a power under Section 5 of the Act for the
Secretary of State to designate a company such as The Learning Trust as a
public authority but to date that power has not been exercised in respect
of The Learning Trust.

Consequently, The Learning Trust is not bound by the provisions of the
Freedom of Information Act. However as a body exercising public functions
The Learning Trust is committed to doing so openly and transparently. The
Learning Trust has developed a policy which, so far as its constitution
allows, complies with the provisions of the Act.

With regard to your request for information, please see the following:

1.)How much money was spent in the Primary Schools in your borough on
School supply staff from April 2010 to April 2011.

A) Please see the attached spreadsheet.

2.)Please give me a break down on how much was spent in each individual
primary school from April 2010 until April 2011.

A) Please see the attached spreadsheet.

3.) Please give me a breakdown on how the supply staff budget was split.
ie. how much on Teachers and how much on support staff.

A) Please see the attached spreadsheet.

4.) Which managed service organisations (if any)and Education Recruitment
agency was this supply organised through.

A) The Learning Trust does not hold this information. Schools make
their own arrangements with regard to supply staff.

I hope this information is helpful.

Regards
