Telephone number of school
Type (Primary, secondary, etc)

Dear Sharon Sullivan 

Thank you for your request for information received on 30 October 2017.
You requested:

 

“Would you be kind enough to send a list of all secondary state schools
across the UK (including England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland).

 

Please could I have it in a spreadsheet showing the following:

Name of school

Address

Postcode

Telephone number of school

Type (Primary, secondary, etc)

Headteacher name email address

Head of Year 11 name and email address

Head of Year 12 name and email address

Head of Science name and email address

 

Thank you in advance for your help.”

 

I have dealt with your request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. 

 

A csv file containing data from the Get Information about Schools (GIAS)
website as at 03 November 2017 is enclosed. The file contains a standard
extract of all educational establishments in England. GIAS does not hold
any information about:

 

Head of Year 11

Head of Year 12

Head of Science

 

While the department holds some headteacher email addresses we are
withholding these under section 40(2) (personal data), this is because the
information in question includes 3rd party personal data.  Personal data
is that which relates to a living individual who can be identified from
that data, or from that data and other information which is likely to be
in, or to come into, the possession of the requestor.  Disclosure of this
information would contravene a number of the data protection principles in
the Data Protection Act 1998, and would be regarded as ‘unfair’.  By that,
we mean the likely expectations of the data subject that his or her
information would not be disclosed to others and the effect which
disclosure would have on the data subject.  Section 40(2) is an absolute
exemption and is not subject to the public interest test.

 

I have supplied you with the school email address where available.

 

Further information on the terms used within this extract can be found in
the Get Information about Schools glossary:
