22/06/2022 - Extension of cooperation agreements to a number of academies in relation to resourced and partnership arrangements under the exempt contracts clause (d) and clause 1.5.2 of Contract Procedure Rules

The Director of Children & Families agreed to a 12-month extension of the cooperation agreements with academies in relation to resourced and partnership provisions.
Within the previous decision taken in May 2017, approval was given to award cooperation agreements to any newly formed academies who have or seek to have resourced or partnership arrangements in place. This approach was agreed to continue for this extension period.
The current agreements expire on 31st August 2022, and the proposed 12-month extension would commence 1st September 2022.
