Freedom of Information

The Freedom of Information Act 2000 gives you the right to request information from us or any other public sector organisation. The Freedom of Information Act Publication Scheme sets out the manner in which information is available. Most of this can be found on our website or a hard copy can be provided on request. We will endeavour to provide hard copy information within 20 working days – a charge for photocopying may be made. If there is a charge we will let you know how much this will be so that you can decide if you want to go ahead.

We hold some information which is confidential as defined in the Data Protection Act. This type of information is exempt from the Freedom of Information Publication Scheme, which means that we do not have to publish it.

The main classes of information under the Publication Scheme are as follows:

• what we are and what we do
• what we spend and how we spend it
• what our priorities are and how we are doing
• how we make decisions
• our policies and procedures
• lists and registers
• the services we offer

Requests for information which is not on the website can be made to the Freedom of Information Office, Leicester College, Freemen’s Park Campus, Welford Road, Leicester LE2 7LW.
