Brian Scowcroft, who helped set up Carlisle's two academies said: “The academies project has been the toughest that I’ve ever done. We delivered two fantastic schools, in terms of buildings and facilities, but they failed from an academic perspective.

“I’m confident that United Learning will rectify that. If I didn’t think they would rectify it, I wouldn’t have asked them in.”
