I’m confused… A load of secondary’s in Bradford weren’t able to get their BSF money to get a new build yet a new free school has been announced.
Does anyone know what it’s intake will be or who is behind the proposal?
UPDATE: Intake will be Yr7+ and it is funded by Alan Lewis.
UPDATE: It will be built on Northside Road in Lidget Green and will be a 2.1 mile drive from the nearest secondary school (Grange City Technology College).
UPDATE: The school now has a website up that answers most of my questions.
There are many likely problems with the location/model and with the council taking education back from Serco I expect to see several sparks flying 🙂

Unfortunately your post comes top of my Google search to answer the same question !
Free schools are not supposed to be restricted by the LEA system of planned provision, but to provide competition for it.
