Dixons Kings Academy is a mixed free school for pupils aged 11 to 16 located in Bradford, West Yorkshire, England.

"[4] Raza anticipated that eventually 80% of pupils would progress into the sixth form and higher education, and that "most of them" would go to the top 20 research-led universities known as the Russell Group.

[6] The school is operated by trustees Kifsa Ltd. and wholly financed by central government through the Education Funding Agency.

[7][8] Kings Science Academy was the subject of an investigation and report by BBC Television's Newsnight current affairs programme on 25 October 2013, following claims by a whistleblower alleging serious financial irregularities, nepotism and fraud.

[20] The attack was premeditated, and racially motivated because the boy, of Pakistani heritage, "hated being disciplined by a black man".

This makes it very clear that the DfE lacks the proper procedures to manage and oversee its free schools programme.

[14]Sajid Raza was arrested in January 2014 on suspicion of fraud and was fired by the school's governors in August 2014 following a disciplinary investigation.

[15] In August 2016, Raza and two other members of staff, Shabana Hussain and Daud Khan, were convicted on charges of defrauding the government out of £150,000.
