Question Title

* 2. CONVERSION:
Do you agree that the schools should become Academies and enter into a Funding Agreement* with the Secretary of State?

Yes

* The funding agreement is the contract every converting school must sign with the Secretary of State for Education. It’s the formal consent to allow the school to convert and it provides the operating framework for the school, including the commitment to ongoing funding. We are therefore seeking your feedback on whether you support the conversion, and if so, for you to respond accordingly above.
