What is a City Academy anyway?




next > >
  • At least £2 million from non-public sponsor

  • DfES fund balance capital

  • Recurrent costs funded directly by DfES:

  • - at a level comparable to the funding of similar schools in the local authority area
  • - takes account of the hold-back by the authority, for services for which the City Academy will be responsible
  • - school receives the addition of a per pupil grant equivalent to specialist schools in the maintained sector,
  • - ie. about 4-5% more than the normal standard per pupil funding allowance for maintained secondary schools – on top of the hold-back.
