"A Guide to Academies"
cademy Schools are in the vanguard of innovative initiatives designed to deliver
quality secondary education. There is already talk of the model being used to transform
primary education.
To date, while much has been written around the politics of Academy Schools, little
exists of a practical nature to instruct those involved from the private and public
sectors in what is involved in establishing and operating an Academy School. What
constitutes best practice?
TPP Law, whose trademark quality for legal innovation in partnership projects has
made them legal adviser of
choice on a wide range of education projects, has now
produced the first practical book – “A Guide to Academies” – to help local authorities,
private investors and school operators negotiate the setting up and running of an
academy school.
This is vital homework reading for Academy sponsors, local authorities, project
managers, school leaders, school staff and anyone with an interest in the academies
programme.
The Guide details how Academies fit into both the Building Schools for the Future programme and the PfS National Framework, explaining the differences between the
two approaches to delivery. It details the processes involved in setting up an Academy,
and the constitution and governance arrangements for Academy Trusts.
The Guide covers the issues involved with setting up the Academy Trust explaining
the relevant documents for set-up and the
procurement of new buildings for the Academy.
Governance points are explored, including the implications of an academy’s charitable
status.
