I would like to request staff turnover rate, where available, for every primary and secondary school in the Island in each of the last five years.
Failing that, can you tell me how many teachers have been hired and how many have resigned in each of the last five years at every island primary and secondary school.
Response
Please note that the data we are providing includes all employees who were on the teacher’s pay scale and excludes zero-hour employees. It specifically accounts for those who have joined or left the Government of Jersey (GoJ) entirely and does not include any internal transfers.
It is not possible to provide the turnover rates. To provide an accurate response. would require manipulation of data. The Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 does not require a Scheduled Public Authority to manipulate data to provide a response. Therefore, this information is not held. Article 3 of the Freedom of Information (Jersey) Law 2011 applies.
