Further to the academy order of the Regional
Schools Commissioner issued on 17 October 2019 the Council is now
required to execute all formal documentation necessary to complete
the conversion to academy status.
This decision record approves the appropriate instruction to the
Council’s Legal section to complete and seal the appropriate
documentation in order for Hawthorn Primary to convert to academy
status on 1 March 2020 as a converter academy. It is proposed that
Hawthorn Primary will join a Multi Academy Trust – Empowering
Minds Academy Trust.
