The Federation is a family of inclusive and aspirational schools working together. The Federation is led and run by teachers. The Federation currently encompasses 51 schools but in addition to this it is expected to grow in the lifetime of the contract. The current working assumption is 3 schools per year but these could join in one group, individually or in smaller groups. The ICT Support at the Federation is currently all delivered ‘in house’. This is mix of technical resource managed by schools themselves and also a central team who support the local technical staff. The implementation of IT is currently subject to a procurement process which will identify a Preferred Bidder by the end of April 2022.
