Summary: The complainant made a number of requests to King-™s College Cambridge, focusing on a number of issues relating to King-™s College School. The College confirmed that it held some information in its own right, but that this information was exempt from disclosure under sections 36 and 40 of the Act. However, in relation to the majority of the requested information the College informed the complainant that the information was held by the School. It went on to explain that the School was not part of the College, and as it was an independent school it was not subject to the Act. Therefore it was not required to provide copies of this information. After investigating the case the Commissioner decided that for the purposes of the Act the School is part of the College, and therefore the information held by the School was covered by the provisions of the Act. Therefore the Commissioner requires the College to comply with its duties under section 1 in relation to this information. In addition to this, the Commissioner also decided that the remaining information was not exempt under sections 36 and 40. Therefore this information should be disclosed. Finally the Commissioner also decided that the College had not met the requirements of sections 10 or 17.
Section of Act/EIR & Finding: FOI 10 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 17 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 36 - Complaint Upheld, FOI 40 - Complaint Partly Upheld
