Durand Academy’s funding agreement terminated
A controversial south London academy has been issued with a formal termination notice by the Department for Education (DfE).
The funding agreement is set to be terminated on 29 June next year.
The school had been in the headlines because of its complex governance arrangements and the pay of its headteacher at the time.
Last October, Durand Academy received a notice of intention to terminate its funding agreement.
According to the DfE, the school had failed to comply with six of eight requirements set out in a provisional intention to terminate the funding agreement notice issued to the trust in 2016.
Its funding is due to be cut on 29 June 2018, and the DfE said it would now transfer the school to a new sponsor.
