Latham, Mark to the Minister for Education and Early Learning

(1) How many emails did the Department Secretary Ms Harrisson receive from Nathaniel Train, the Executive Principal of Walgett Community College Primary School, outlining problems at the school and the need for assistance during his tenure?

(a) How many of these emails did the Secretary respond to in substance, not including acknowledgements of receipt?

(b) What assistance did Ms Harrisson provide?

Answer -

I am advised that over the course of two weeks in March 2022, Mr Train sent 16 emails to the “SecretaryOffice” email account.

Given the subject matter of the emails and consistent with standard practice and procedure, after an initial acknowledgement and advice on the appropriate approach and process to follow, the emails were referred to the responsible functional unit within the Department for attention and appropriate action.
