Each year the Department for Education (DfE) publish performance measures for multi-academy trusts (MATs). For the period 2018/19, we were positioned 39th (out of 59) for medium to large sized MAT performance across the country, based on Progress 8 data – which measures a student’s progress from key stage 2 to 4.

Please note, due to the coronavirus pandemic, schools in England are not required to publish their exam and assessment results from the 2019/20 academic year as these have not been released as performance measures by the Secretary of State. Therefore, the performance measures below are not current.
