Mere Valley Foundation shall, within 30 days of the delivery of this Decision to them, respond to the request for information made by T on 21 April 2023 without reliance on section 14(1) Freedom of Information Act 2000.
      On 11 December 2023 an Interim Decision was made granting the Appellant (T) and family anonymity.�
      T had a child at a school connected with Mere Valley Foundation ("MVF"). T told us that they became concerned about certain aspects of their child's schooling and the implication for safeguarding.� We are not called upon in this Appeal to adjudicate between MVF and T on these concerns and this Decision does not seek to do so.
      The Appeal relates to a decision notice ("the DN") issued by the Information Commissioner ("the Commissioner") dated 11 August 2023.�� In it the Commissioner supported the view taken by MVF that it was entitled to rely on section 14(1) Freedom of Information Act 2000 ("FOIA") in refusing to provide the information requested by T.����
      To assist us at the Appeal, as well as hearing from T, we had a bundle of documents running to about 500 pages.� Reference to page numbers are to this bundle.� In addition to this we were provided with a skeleton argument prepared by T and additional correspondence and information including 3 character references for T.�
