Funding Agreement

The Funding Agreement is the contract between the Secretary of State for Education and the academy that sets out the terms on which the academy is funded. This document applies to all schools who are part of the Lumen Christi Catholic Multi Academy Company (MAC).

The Funding Agreement specifies how Lumen Christi is run, its duties and the powers the Secretary of State has over it. The Funding Agreement is the method by which academies are held accountable to the Department for Education (DfE).

In places the Funding Agreement makes specific references to existing legislation to ensure that academies operate in a similar fashion to other state-funded schools and that there is parity between our schools and other state schools. Funding Agreements are not static and may be updated as the law and policy relating to academies changes.

Each member school has a supplemental agreement between Lumen Christi and the Secretary of State for Education. Please see the links below to to download the supplemental agreement particular to school.
