As at 1 July 2019, there have been 385 maintained schools that have been issued an academy order following an inadequate Ofsted judgement that has resulted in them opening as a sponsored academy. The list of these sponsored academies, the dates of their academy orders, the dates they opened as sponsored academies and the name of the academy trust that they joined can be found in the attached table. Of these 385 sponsored academies, only St Edward’s Catholic Academy has subsequently transferred trust. This occurred on 1 September 2018.
