Data Requests, Collection & Planned Release Dates
Babcock Data Calendars
Data Release Calendar
The Data Release Calendar outlines the planned release of performance and contextual data analyses to schools – for academic year 2008/09.
The schedule can be used as a guide as to when you can expect to receive data analyses from the Research Team at Babcock or other services within the organisation where stated.
Please note that the Calendar is both complimentary and supplementary to the Information Requests Planner produced by Babcock; actual release dates of data analysis reports may differ from that of the timetable.
Data Requests Calendar

- The date of the request and its required return date
- Which type of schools the request applies to
- And comments relating to submissions or change in procedures

DfE Data Collection Schedule
The DfE Data Collection Schedule for July 2008 to August 2009 is intended to give Local Authorities (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 DfE 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. The schedule is accesssible via the folowing link.
- Basic Overview - DfE Data Collection Schedule for July 2008 to August 2009
- In-depth Overview - DfE Data Collection Schedule for February 2009
There is also an explanatory document, which explains the layout of the schedule and explains some of the terms used in it.
We hope this information will help schools to anticipate data request and planned release dates. And also help us to streamline communications and information sharing with schools.
Please note data requests, collections and release schedules may change over time, for an up to date Schedule we recommended you visit this page regularly.
We welcome any queries, suggestions or comments, this can be put forward directly to the Research Team via our Service Desk.
