Response to this request is long overdue. By law, under all circumstances, Central Sussex College should have responded by now (details). You can complain by requesting an internal review.

Dear Central Sussex 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 Jacobs

Dear Mr Jacobs

Please see below our response to your Freedom of Information request dates 30th March 2017:

Firstly, from your most recent complete cohort data, how many teacher trainees successfully completed their training?

Response: Teacher training completers for 15/16 ('most recent complete cohort'):
*Certificate in Education (pcet) = 6
*Professional Graduate Certificate in Education (pcet) = 4

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.

Response: NQT on placement = nil (NQT is not applicable to this sector of education). None are employed by a school full time; all of the trainee teachers teach in other sectors of education, not in the schools sector

Lastly, How many of those same trainees were employed through a supply agency?

Response: none were employed by a supply agency.

Thank you for your interest in Central Sussex College.

Kind regards

David Finch
Head of ILT
