Free Schools?

"A Free School could be set up by any suitable proposer, where there is evidence of parental demand such as a petition or declaration from interested parents and a clear and compelling business case. This could include one or more of the following groups:

• teachers
• charities
• academy sponsors
• universities
• independent schools
• community and faith groups
• parents
• businesses (on a not-for-profit basis)."
