The Painsley Catholic Academy

The complainant requested information about GCSE results from The Painsley Catholic Academy (the public authority). By the date of this notice the public authority had not issued a substantive response to this request. The Commissioner’s decision is that the public authority failed to provide a valid response to the request within the statutory time frame of 20 working days and therefore it breached section 10(1) of FOIA. The public authority must provide a substantive response to the request in accordance with its obligations under FOIA.
