I applied to the LA for a search, including all records held under Education, Childrens services, health including connexions and parent partnership.
I have just received the most pathetic 7 pages which only relates to connexions and parent link.
I phone the FoI officer who told me they don't hold any other records and that I would need to approach the schools etc individually. I said to him that the council surely hold the records of these as they all come under the council. He said not.
I asked him why they did not tell me this when I applied for the search on 11th January and he did not answer.
I asked him to put all this in an email for me.
I just phoned the information office commissioner who told me that re school records I have to apply direct to the head of each school, so now i know that. But there must be records which come under childrens services - SEN , Psychology etc that they have to give me?
I am fuming as I will now not have the info before my deadline . i know I can make a complaint but that is yet more work and time wasting.
