Freedom of Information

A message from the Senior Executive Principal & CEO of the Harris Federation.

The Freedom of Information Act 2000 gives the public right of access to information produced in the course of the Federation’s work. 

There are exemptions to this right. In particular, data about living, identifiable people ('personal data') continues to be covered by the Data Protection Act and is not generally publicly available except to the "subject" of the data - that is, the person whom the data is about.

Under the Freedom of Information Act, the Harris Federation has developed a Publication Scheme which lists all the documents which the Federation will make public as a matter of routine.

If the information you are looking for is not available on our Publication Scheme, you can make a request for the information you require in writing, or by using our Freedom of Information Act request form available below.

Yours sincerely

Sir Daniel Moynihan
Senior Executive Principal & CEO
