  • Decision(s) FOI 35(1)(a): Not upheld

The Commissioner’s decision is that the Department for Education (DfE) correctly applied the exemption under section 35(1)(a) of FOIA to the request for information about the “levelling up premium” for teachers. This exemption concerns the formulation or development of government policy. It’s not necessary for DfE to take any corrective steps.
