Support services specialist Amey and Nord Anglia Education, an education outsourcing company, are set to run schools in one of London's poorest performing boroughs.

A five-year £200m contract signed this week means the joint venture will deliver services to the 92 schools within Waltham Forest.

Amey will specialise in delivering £90m of core support services such as budget and financial management, human resources and IT. Other services in the package include: direct pupil services like welfare and special needs; school development and planning; and literacy and numeracy strategies.

The contract will be overseen by a Strategic Partnership Board comprising the joint venture, the local education authority and the Department for Education.
