Question

Re: Maintained secondary schools within your local authority that have laser cutting or engraving systems in their Design & Technology (DT) departments. For each school where information is held, please include: • School name • School URN (if held) • School postcode • Laser system make (e.g., Trotec, Epilog, GCC, ULS, xTool, Flux, OmTech, etc.) • Model (e.g., Speedy 300, Legend 32EX, Spirit GLS, ILS 9.75, etc.) • Quantity (number of laser systems) • Year of installation (if held) • Whether the school is maintained by the LA or an academy/free school (if held) If you do not hold this information for academies or free schools, please: 1. Confirm that you do not hold it, and 2. Provide what you do hold for maintained secondary schools, and 3. If reasonably practicable under your s.16 duty to advise and assist, supply a list of secondary academies in your area (name/postcode and, if held, contact email) so I can redirect my enquiry. If the request as drafted would exceed the appropriate cost limit (s.12), please advise and assist (s.16) by suggesting a narrower scope—for example: • Maintained secondary schools only; or • A list of schools known to have any laser cutter (without model detail); or • A sample of up to 10 schools you can identify most readily; or • Returning any data you already hold centrally (asset registers, purchase records, or insurance schedules).
