One of the key aspects of the Trust’s bid for funding from the Department for Education was an assessment of the group’s “Capacity and Capability” to set up the school. This involved an audit of the groups skills and experience, which concluded that the range of skills across the group and its supporters was more than sufficient. In addition to the members of the community, the Department for Education allocated a team of advisers and consultants with expert experience in all the key areas to assist the group where required. Procurement of the buildings, IT and learning materials is managed and funded by the Education Funding Agency.
