Welcome to the federation area of the website. It has been created by headteachers, managers and co-ordinators of federations across the country. We hope you will find the content useful and that you will help us develop the knowledge base.
The Education Act 2002 enabled maintained schools to federate. Find out what a federation is and how you can collaborate with other schools.
People working in school federations experience a whole range of achievements and challenges when working together. These examples may help you reflect on your own practice.
Here you can find our federation database and templates that we hope will be useful for further developments of your federation.
This practitioner written guide gives you the background to all age schooling.
