A variety of organisations are involved with the 2012 Games

• The Government is responsible for delivering the legacy of the Games, with the new Government Olympic Executive (reporting to the Secretary of State at DCMS) having a cross-Government coordinating role. The legacy work is being taken forward across all Government Departments, Devolved Administrations, the Greater London Authority which is responsible for planning specific to London, LOCOG, the British Olympic Association and British Paralympic Association, and regional planning structures.
• The London 2012 Organising Committee of the Olympic Games and Paralympic Games (LOCOG) is responsible for planning, organising, publicising and staging the Games. They are the UK's main point of contact with the International Olympic Committee about the Games. Within LOCOG, the Culture Ceremonies and Education Team is responsible for delivering a London 2012 Education Programme. LOCOG is a limited company, registered in England and Wales, and funded mainly from the private sector from sources including sponsorship, broadcasting rights and selling merchandise.
• The overall Olympic project, including all the work above, is coordinated by an Olympic Board that consists of the Secretary of State for Culture, Media and Sport, the Mayor of London, the Chair of the British Olympic Association and the Chair of LOCOG.
