Further to your request for information about the agency spend for all
schools, including primary, secondary, sen, pru's and alternative
education settings for September 2017-present ideally split by the total
cost, agency names and cost per agency. I can tell you the following:

 

Walsall Council do not hold this information therefore the information you
have requested is not recorded or held information and is therefore exempt
from disclosure under section 1 of the Freedom of Information Act.

 

You would need to contact the schools directly as they hold this
information themselves.

 

I hope that the information provided is useful to you. However, if you are
dissatisfied, you should set out in writing your grounds for complaint and
send to: Information Risk & Governance Manager, Business Change, Civic
Centre, Darwall Street, Walsall, WS1 1TP.

 

If you are not content with the outcome of your complaint, you may apply
directly to the Information Commissioner’s Office (ICO) for a decision.
Please remember that, generally, the ICO cannot make a decision unless you
have first exhausted the complaints procedure provided by the council. The
Information Commissioner can be contacted at: The Information
Commissioner’s Office, Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire, SK9
