1. INTRODUCTION
The present fast and double digit economic growth of Ethiopia especially demands an equivalent
growth in service sector. The sector should expand rapidly to support the overall economic
development sustainably.
The County Council believes the best way to meet the demand for places for pupils from the
Fields development is to build a new 210- place Academy on the site we believe that learners
come first. We want our children and young people to enjoy learning, make good progress, and
achieve high standards. To do this, we need to ensure that best schools offer first class facilities,
and have sufficient places available, so as to offer real choice, good access, and the best
environment in which to learn. This is in keeping with our statutory duty and strategic priorities
to develop additional school places. Put simply we want to ensure that our schools are amongst
the best available and offer the right number of places at the time they are needed.
As part of our strategic vision, we have identified a need for International school places to serve
the Koye sub-city.
. The County Council believes the best way to meet this emerging demand for places is to
develop a new International Academy.
It is expected that the new school will open in September 2011. Details of the arrangements for
pupil admission will be agreed with the successful Academy Proposer and will be undertaken in
such a way as to not have a detrimental impact on other primary schools in the area.
The new school will also incorporate recreation facilities to be made available to the local
community. The school and recreation facilities will be designed by the County Council and
built on land located within the Koye sub-city. The school will be wholly funded by the County
Council using a combination of contributions from the housing developers (Section 106) and
other capital resources. An allocation for start-up and post opening revenue costs for the new
school will be agreed with the successful Academy Proposer in accordance with the County
Council’s policy on school growth. Further details of which may be found herein.
The County Council is not aware of any independent applications to run a Free School in the
locality.
This document sets out in further detail for Academy Proposers and other interested parties; why
we believe a new school will provide the best solution to improve choice, diversity and standards
for our children and young people, where it will be located, how this will be funded, how we
expect this to be run, and the process and timeline that we intend to follow. Please take time to

read this information carefully, and make contact using the details provided should you require
any further information or guidance.
1.1 Background
Why the additional primary places are necessary in Koye sub-city The Education places a
statutory duty on the County Council to ensure that there is a strong supply of good school places
available to meet demand. The County Council has set out how it will meet the emerging
demand for school places in its strategic plan ‘In the Right Place- Strategy for School and Other
Educational Places which may be accessed via the following. The demand for additional places
arises as a result of the new homes being built on the School Fields development in Koye sub-
city. Analysis of the above factors shows that an additional 13 primary school places will be
required by September 2011, with demand steadily increasing in the following years. Current
arrangements The Koye sub-city area is served by different primary schools,
Riverside Primary School and High school. Both schools form a part of the Multi Academy
Trust. At present, both schools have distinct catchment areas. The table below shows the current
number on roll at each school. School Admission number Net capacity Current number on roll
High School Riverside Primary School Providing a new primary Academy would help relieve
the pressure on the other schools emerging from the housing development whilst providing for
parents and pupils greater choice. A new school would also offer the opportunity to improve
education generally by strengthening local partnerships and collaborative working, and bringing
new expertise and knowledge to the area. About the development An education Fields
development is on an area of land to the Oromia situated just off the A Lough borough Road. On
completion the development will comprise of different dwellings, a business park, fire station,
primary school and recreation centre and a local centre for retail and community uses.
A Section agreement was entered into on the March 2010 which secured various contributions
towards on-site facilities and off-site works. Contained within the agreement is the requirement
to provide a new primary school and recreation centre. Currently approximately 680 dwellings
are occupied on the site. The site for the new school and the location of the existing schools in
Koye sub-city are shown on the Specification area.
The government of Ethiopian has been implementing the five years growth and transformation
development plan which is promised to bring prosperity and development to its citizens with
collaboration with privet sector investment action; moreover, it has a conducive and favorable
investment police and guidelines for private sectors.

Protocol. The County Council expects Academy Proposers to adopt the same admission criteria
used to determine priority for places as in other local schools as set out in the following
Catchment Area New catchment arrangements for the school will be determined with the
Academy Proposer in conjunction with the two local primary schools. Equality and Diversity
All potential Academy Proposers are required to demonstrate their commitment to inclusion, to
promoting equality and diversity and to eliminating unlawful discrimination and harassment.
Equality and Human Rights Impact Assessment (EHRIA)An initial EHRIA undertaken by the
County Council shows that no particular individuals or groups will be disadvantaged by the
proposals for the new school. The new school will not have any specific specialist resourced
provision for pupils with special education needs. The Academy will nevertheless be expected to
serve children with special educational needs in its catchment area for whom mainstream
education is considered appropriate and to work with other providers and services in meeting the
needs of pupils with special educational needs and disabilities. Extended Services The County
Council expects the Academy sponsor to collaborate and engage with other providers and local
partners to develop extended services which meet the needs of local children, young people and
families in a coordinated, holistic way which can be accessed through all the partners in the
locality. These services may include: access to high quality childcare, out of hours learning
activities and clubs,
parenting support and community access to appropriate facilities. Academy Proposers are asked
to provide evidence in their application of their commitment towards the development o
fextended provision at the new school. Home to School Transport The Council will expect the
Academy Proposer to encourage safe and sustainable travel to the new school, including walking
and cycling, and to develop a comprehensive travel plan to support this. Home to school
transport will only be provided, therefore, in line with the Local Authority’s Home to
School/College Transport policy i.e. when it is stipulated within a child’s statement of Special
Educational Need, or a child has an identified medical need which prevents them from walking
or cycling to school and/or the distance from the child’s home to the school is beyond the
statutory walking distance of 2 miles measured by straight line distance or where it is the child’s
designated school. Funding Arrangements As this new school will be an Academy, the
successful Academy Proposer will need to enter into a revenue funding agreement with the
Secretary of State for Education, for the operation of the school, to be effective from the date of
the school’s opening. As this will be an Academy established to meet basic need, the County
13
Council will be responsible for funding an amount to support pre-opening revenue costs and
post-opening diseconomies. The new school will be funded on the basis of estimated pupil
numbers in accordance with The Schools and Early Years Finance Regulations. The new school
will be a recoupment Academy and the annual revenue budget will replicate the County
Council’s formula for funding schools, subject to protection and additional payments in
accordance with the budget policy for academies operated by the Education Funding Agency.
