Temorary agency spend for schools
Dear Bexley Borough Council,
I am interested in the amounts paid by each school in Bexley
LEA to third parties in relation to temporary agency staffing cover. My
hope is to receive an electronic breakdown of amounts paid
through the department's purchase ledger by school from September 2011 to December 2011.
Please can you supply the following information in an excel spreadsheet format:-
School Name – URN or DFE number – agency/supplier name – total amount paid
Yours faithfully,
Amanda Walker
