Trainee teacher NQT data request.
Dear Kirklees College,
I am writing to make an Open Government request under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. In order to assist you with this request, I am outlining my query as specifically as possible. If, however, this request is too wide or unclear, I would be grateful if you could contact me as I understand that under the Act, you are required to advise and assist those who request information from you.
Firstly, from your most recent complete cohort data, how many teacher trainees successfully completed their training?
Secondly, how many of those same trainees were on an NQT placement at the end of their training, compared with how many were not employed (by a school full time) at the end of their training.
Lastly, How many of those same trainees were employed through a supply agency?
I understand that under the Act, I am entitled to a response within 20 working days. I would be grateful if you could confirm by email that you have received this request. I look forward to hearing from you in the near future.
Yours faithfully,
Luke Jacob
Good afternoon Luke
We have received your Freedom of Information Request below and below are the answers to your questions and also a request for clarification from you for the first question. Also please note the vast majority of our staff qualify to teach in FE, not schools, therefore they are not classed as NQT once completed.
1. We can provide this data if you can please clarify if you are looking at data for post 16 teachers, not schools cohort
2. Our trainees are not employed in schools, therefore are not NQTs
3. None of our trainees were employed through a supply agency
I hope this answers your questions sufficiently but please contact me if you require further information.
Kind regards
Julie
