Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use British English Шаблон:Infobox company Bellevue Place Education Trust (BPET) is a British organisation formed in 2012 to operate primary Free Schools in London and South East. It is jointly operated by Bellevue Education and Place Group.[1][2] The Free Schools are financed on a non-profit basis via a master funding agreement with the Department for Education.[3][4]

History

In 2012, Bellevue Place Education Trust was formed as a partnership between Bellevue Education and Place Group.[1][2] It is a "private company limited by guarantee"

The following year the trust opened its first state-funded free school, Rutherford House in Balham.[5] It was reported to be partnering with philosopher AC Grayling on another free school project,[6] but that bid was unsuccessful.[7]

The trust opened two more free schools in 2014: Braywick Court School in Maidenhead and Whitehall Park School in Islington.[8]

Later in 2014 the Bellevue Place Education Trust obtained Government "pre-approval" to open four more free schools in London in 2015: Richmond Bridge Primary,[9] Kilburn Grange,[10] Halley House,[11] and Watling Park.[12] However, the trust was unable to secure a site in the Richmond Bridge area, so the proposed Richmond Bridge Primary School was renamed to Deer Park School.[13]

Controversies regarding sites

The establishment of Whitehall Park on the former site of Ashmount School was controversial, being opposed by the local council and some local residents,[14][15][16][17] and criticised over the cost of refurbishing the school building.[18]

The proposed location of Deer Park School led to opposition from some local residents who question the suitability of the chosen site.[19]

The site chosen for Braywick Court School was also controversial with some of its local residents.[20]
