Schedule of Collections 2008-09
The DCSF's Data Collection Schedule from June 2009 is available
(the next update will be in July 2009). There is also an explanatory document which explains the layout of the
schedule and some of the terms used in it. The schedule is intended to
give LAs and schools a guide to the pattern of data collections/surveys
for the year ahead, including both new and ongoing ones. This schedule includes
data collections by the Department and by those organisations that have signed
up to the Protocol on Data Sharing and Rationalisation.
The schedule covers a rolling 12-month period and will be updated at regular
intervals. It is not intended to include documents such as applications for
grants or test order forms or other forms whose main purpose is not data
collection as such. This document is aimed at assisting LAs and schools
and we would appreciate any comments you have that can assist us in
meeting your needs.
Please send any comments to Robert Bauling (Tel 020 7340 8330).
