Definition

• Refers to voluntary aided and voluntary controlled schools. Both types are maintained by the local education authority, but their land and buildings are normally owned by a charitable foundation. In voluntary aided schools, the governing body is the employer and admissions authority; in voluntary controlled schools, the LEA is the employer and admissions authority.
