Subject: Government Information (Public Access) request - Thirroul Public School - Tell Them From Me Survey Data

Dear NSW Department of Education

In accordance with the Freedom of Information Act 1989 (NSW) and the Government Information (Public Access) Act 2009, could you please provide the following information for Thirroul Public School:

- All consolidated reports/results for the Tell Them From Me (TTFM) survey - incl. parent, staff, and student responses - for the last 5 years years up to and including the most recent survey conducted in late October 2022.

Unfortunately the school executive is unwilling to provide the necessary level of detail for parents and the wider school community to determine whether any progress is being made as it relates to student engagement and well-being.

I look forward to your response.

Ed
