The Department does not provide any funding to United Church Schools Trust (UCST). United Learning Trust (ULT) is a subsidiary charity of UCST and sponsors 17 academies. The Department does not provide any funding to sponsors but to the not-for-profit charitable companies they establish to set up and run the academies. Sponsors, including ULT also provide funding to these charitable companies.
