Academies Bill — Requirement for Foundation Schools to Consult on Application for Academy Order — 26 Jul 2010 at 19:15

The majority of MPs voted against requiring foundation schools to consult prior to making an application for academy status.

The text of the defeated amendment was:

  • in clause 3, in page 3, line 11, at end insert-
  • '(1A) Before making an application for an Academy order, the governing body shall consult relevant parties on whether to make such an application.
  • (1B) The Secretary of State shall issue guidance as to how governing bodies should conduct such a consultation with parents, pupils, teaching and non-teaching staff and their representatives, neighbouring schools and the local authority and such other parties as he may think appropriate and such guidance must also specify the information to be made available to consultees in relation to the proposed arrangements for Academy status.'

There is a separate provision requiring consultation in relation to maintained schools.[2]
