Governors Pass Resolution to Apply for Academy Status
Following the positive responses received as a result of the consultation held before Christmas, the governors have passed a resolution to apply for an Academy Order. This is an application which advises the Department for Education that we are considering transfer, and therefore formalises the current process. It still does not commit us to becoming an academy, but opens up additional opportunities for us to discuss further the pros and cons for our school to enable a final decision to be reached, and allows for legal documentation to be drafted for consideration.
The governors will keep you fully updated, and welcome any questions you may have at any point during the process.
