Do you want to be an Academy?

Becoming an Academy – The Benefits and Challenges

Following the announcement of the coalition government to offer the opportunity for outstanding schools to become Academies you will have received an invitation to apply and take advantage of this.

If this is something that you are considering you may be interested in further information about the processes involved before you make a decision.
