Trust schools are similar but are run together with an outside body usually either a charity or business, which forms an educational trust. Voluntary aided schools Voluntary aided schools are just like foundation schools in the respect that they are run by a governing body who employs staff and sets entrance criteria, but the land and buildings are usually owned by a charity which is often a church. Voluntary controlled schools Voluntary controlled schools are a cross between community and voluntary aided schools. The local authority employs staff and sets entrance criteria but the land and buildings are owned by a charity which appoints some members of the governing body. Faith schools Faith schools are much the same as other state schools in the sense that they follow the national curriculum and are funded by local authorities.
They’re run by a governing body which employs the staff. Some academies also get funding from sponsors from business, faith or voluntary groups. Academies don’t have to follow the national curriculum and can set their own term times and school hours. They still have to follow the same rules on admissions, special educational needs and exclusions as other state schools. 4.
Pupil welfare is paramount. The governing body is broken up into smaller committees. These committees look at school development, health and safety, child protection.
