Updated: Added 'Mixed multi-academy trusts' document to page.
There are 3 main draft model articles of association which have been agreed with the Catholic Education Service and the National Society for the Church of England for use by church schools wishing to become an academy.
Whilst the model articles are broadly similar and can be used by either Catholic or Church of England schools, there are differences in the way the governance arrangements at membership and governing body level have been reflected.
The advice note, downloadable from this page advises schools on which models may be most appropriate for them to use.
