An interested sponsor should first contact the regional schools commissioner RSC to discuss their ideas. If they agree, a Department for Education DfE sponsor lead will be assigned. The profile of academy sponsors changes frequently as the DfE approves new organisations and as new sponsors take on more schools.
Existing sponsors come from a wide range of backgrounds, including:. If the sponsor is a school that is already an academy, it must ask the trust to pass a resolution to show that it agrees with the plans to become a sponsor. If the sponsor is a school that is not an academy, it needs to get approval from the governing body before submitting an application to become a sponsor.
The governing body then has to pass a resolution to approve the sponsor. It is likely that the governing body, Head and staff will want to get to know the sponsor before they pass this resolution.
Once the resolution has been passed, the RSC has to approve the match officially. The RSC will ask for evidence of the specific support the sponsor would offer the academy. Before it recommends the sponsor formally, the local Headteacher Board and academy both need to agree to it.
