Nothing agressive in either of the two main emails that I can see there - some of his follow up emails could have been solved in an easier and more personable manner though.

Sadly the responses he received intially (as I'm assuming that eventually most of the schools complied with the request) is pretty par for the course - in particular within the education sector.

Wandarah raised the only thing which I would ask if I was on the receiving end of such a request and that's easily fixed with an email back, "Can you confirm that you are currently based in NZ or a NZ citizen based overseas please."

this.

Also forwarded to @techliberty to see what they make of it.
