Babcock4S awarded national accreditation

Babcock4S has been awarded national accreditation by the Department for Education to provide education expertise to Academies and Free Schools under a new educational services framework.

Our company is one of 12 nationally approved providers, selected to provide education expertise and guidance in the establishment of new academies and free schools.

Working in partnership with sponsors and proposers in their journey to open their new academy or free school, Babcock4S will provide a broad range of expertise, including developing the education vision and strategy, curriculum, staffing structure and recruitment Our team includes Babcock 4S consultants and associate head teachers across primary, secondary and SEN phases, many with experience of setting up academies.

The DfE will publish 'mini-bids' to the 12 framework companies and Babcock4S will then select which to pursue in line with their overall growth strategy.

Babcock expects to see most opportunities coming through for free schools and for poorly performing schools that the DfE is seeking to convert to academy status.
