Academies: Closures
(asked on 7th September 2016) - View Source
Question to the Department for Education:
To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many academies judged inadequate had their funding agreement terminated and were closed in each year since 2010.
All inadequate academies are automatically subject to scrutiny and close monitoring by Regional Schools Commissioners (RSCs) to secure rapid improvements.
Academic Year | *Number of ‘inadequate academies’ | Number of ‘inadequate academies’ that have moved trusts | **Number of ‘inadequate academies that have been issued with a formal notice. |
2010/11 | 5 | 1 | 2 |
2011/12 | 27 | 6 | 7 |
2012/13 | 45 | 17 | 7 |
2013/14 | 94 | 33 | 19 |
2014/15 | 92 | 24 | 20 |
2015/16 | 60 | 9 | 7 |
*The information shown includes those academies inspected within an academic year and therefore if an academy has had more than one inadequate inspection this will be included in each year
**Excludes formal notices where the academy has since moved trust
