These roles are part of a strategic development within Northern Star Academies Trust to develop specialist provision within our mainstream schools to meet the needs of children with additional needs. The new provisions are funded by local authorities, who will also allocate places. [In Bradford local authority area these are known as "Resourced Provisions" (RPs),whilst in North Yorkshire local authority area, they are known as "Targeted Maintained Provisions"(TMPs)].
