ROTA Equality and Free Schools project

(November 30, 2011)

Race on the Agenda (ROTA) is carrying out a project that aims to help ensure that children and young people from marginalised Black, Asian and minority ethnic (BAME) communities benefit from the services provided by free schools. Part of this involves research to determine: the level of involvement of BAME communities in free schools as proposers, governors, staff and pupils; the support needs of BAME communities seeking to set up free schools; and the support needs of free schools in developing inclusive services.

To develop the evidence base about equality and free schools, ROTA is conducting a survey of people who have opened or applied to open a free school.
