  • Appendix Learning Service Academy Update
    Agenda Item Number 7a Appendix 4 Appendix 4 Academies and Free Schools Update 1. Introduction 1.1 The Learning Service has developed a team around the academy conversion process who ensure schools and Governing Bodies are kept updated about academy processes, work closely with the conversion and sponsor divisions of the Department for Education (DfE) and work effectively and efficiently to support schools and sponsors who wish to convert by the timescale agreed. We now have 5% of maintained schools that have become academies in West Sussex and will have at least 7.5% by September 2012. This will be 24% of secondary schools and 5% of the primaries; this is close to anticipated trends. 1.2 West Sussex County Council recognises that the decision for a school to convert to Academy status rests with the governing body and so, while it encourages all schools to consider the benefits of Academy status, it cannot coerce schools to convert. 2. Context 2.1 West Sussex County Council successfully worked with two sponsors (Woodard and United Learning Trust) under the former government to open four secondary age Academies. The County Council supports the current coalition government’s ambition to encourage diversification in educational provision. This includes facilitating the process for those schools that wish to convert to academy status, supporting the DfE school improvement agenda by working with those schools identified as underperforming by the DfE criteria on sponsored academy status and to support any requests for information by those wishing to develop a Free School. Several sponsors have been included in disseminating information to schools or localities and the Learning Service have worked with school managers and governors where requested.
