An "inadequate" school in Somerset will become an academy in a bid to improve its performance.
Lydeard St Lawrence Community Primary School was found wanting by Ofsted at an inspection in November 2021.
Education secretary James Cleverly MP has since signed off plans for the school - which has some 50 pupils - to become part of the Bath and Wells Diocesan Academies Trust.
The Taunton school will officially join the trust on 1 October.
After it joins the trust in the autumn term, all of its staff will move across and the school's buildings will be leased from Somerset County Council for 125 years, the Local Democracy Reporting Service reported.
