Please could you tell me how many schools in your area have police officers regularly at the school's site? Please give the total number of schools which had a police presence every year for the last four academic years (i.e. 2007/'08, 2008/'09, 2009/'10, 2010/'11).

If possible, it would be useful also to have the names of the schools.

Please state how many schools (all types of schools, including primary, secondary, sixth form and colleges) the police have a regular, pre-arranged 'on-site' presence. This should include, but not be limited to, police assisting with pupils at the end of the school day / police making pre-arranged appearances on the school site to assist with any kind of issues in the school, such as violence, bullying, drugs, etc. In other words, this request should cover all schools where, at some point in the last year, there has been any type of arrangement between police and schools for any type of police presence (but should not include any on-off incidents that have not been pre-arranged).

Please state:

1) How many schools, if any, police have had a presence in, in the last 12 months.

 2) Please state the names of the schools

3) For each school, please state how regular the police presence is/has been (e.g. every morning, ongoing/ once a month for 6 months, etc)

4) The type of work/support that the police provides for each of the schools listed
