English term or phrase:voluntary aided schools
A voluntary aided school is a state-funded school in England and Wales in which a foundation or trust (often a religious organisation) contributes to building costs and has a substantial influence in the running of the school.
Voluntary aided schools are a kind of "maintained school", meaning that they receive all their running costs from central government via the Local Education Authority, and do not charge fees to students. In contrast to other types of maintained school, only 90% of the capital costs of a voluntary aided school are met by government. The foundation contributes the rest of the capital costs, owns the school's land and buildings and appoints a majority of the school governors. The governing body runs the school, employs the staff and decides the school's admission arrangements, subject to rules imposed by central government. Pupils follow the National Curriculum, except that faith schools may teach Religious Education according to their own faith.[1][2][3]
Within the maintained sector in England, approximately 22% of primary schools and 17% of secondary schools are voluntary aided, including all of the Roman Catholic schools and the schools of non-Christian faiths. Almost all voluntary aided primary schools and 93% of voluntary aided secondary schools are linked to a religious body, usually either the Church of England or the Roman Catholic Church, with a minority of other faiths.[4]
Prior to the Education Act 1944, voluntary schools were those associated with a foundation, usually a religious group. That Act imposed higher standards on school facilities, and offered voluntary schools a choice in funding the costs this would incur.
Explanation: ''U Engleskoj i Walesu školstvo je podijeljeno u nekoliko kategorija:
državne škole (community schools), zakladne škole (foundation schools), dobrovoljne škole koje obuhvaćaju dobrovoljne pomoćne i dobrovoljne kontrolirane škole (voluntary aided schools, voluntary controled schools), državne specijalne škole (community special schools), zakladne specijalne škole (foundation special schools) te nezavisne škole (independent schools). Samo se neovisne škole smatraju privatnim školama. Ostale škole se smatraju uzdržavanim školama.''
''Voluntary-aided schools
Voluntary-aided schools are mainly religious or 'faith' schools, although anyone can apply for a place. As with foundation schools, the governing body:
employs the staff
sets the admissions criteria
School buildings and land are normally owned by a charitable foundation, often a religious organisation. The governing body contributes to building and maintenance costs.
Voluntary-controlled schools
Voluntary-controlled schools are similar to voluntary aided schools, but are run by the local authority. As with community schools, the local authority:
employs the school's staff
sets the admissions criteria
School land and buildings are normally owned by a charity, often a religious organisation, which also appoints some of the members of the governing body.''
Explanation: Može se reći da su to državne škole jer 90% financiranja pripada državi, a ostatak nekoj određenoj organizaciji koja je ujedno i vlasnik školskih posjeda, zgrada i često odabire upravitelje. Upravitelji vode školu, zapošljavaju i odlučuju o financijama i troškovima, no prema državnim mjerilima i pravilima. Često su te organizacije religiozne, pa u svoj program mogu dodati nastavu vjeronauka ovisno o religiji. Dvije religije su zastupljene najviše: Engleska Crkva i Rimokatolička Crkva uz druge religije koje su prisutne u manjem broju.
