Borden Grammar School

The complainant has requested copies of various documents relating to administration and management. The Commissioner’s decision is that Borden Grammar School was entitled to rely on Section 14 of the FOIA (Vexatious) to refuse the request. However, it failed to issue an adequate refusal notice and has thus breached Section 17 of the FOIA. The Commissioner does not require any further steps to be taken – although both the complainant and the School would be advised to note the comments she has made under the “Other Matters” section of this notice.
