I am writing to make a request for information under the Freedom of Information Act 2000. Could you please provide for each of 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and 2025, and for the most recent date available: a) the number of School Crossing Patrol officers ('lollipop' staff) in post in your area, whether employed by the council or provided by another body on its behalf; b) of these, how many were funded by (i) the council, (ii) schools, (iii) sponsors or other third parties; c) the number of School Crossing Patrol sites (crossing points), and how many of these were vacant. If your council no longer provides a School Crossing Patrol service, or has passed responsibility to schools or another body, please tell me when this happened.
