To ask the Secretary of State for Education and Skills, if she will make a statement on the Academy project in Milton Keynes following the withdrawal of Global Education Management Systems from the project.
Answer

Proposals for an academy in Milton Keynes are at a very early stage. No formal project has been agreed there. We had been in discussion with GEMS and with Milton Keynes council about the proposal but no agreement was reached. Academies officials are continuing their discussions with a range of sponsors about potential academy projects around the country, including the proposal in Milton Keynes.
