Across the 16 schools in the trust with comparable results, the average sits about level with the middle of schools with a similar intake. That is a fairer read on the trust than its raw results, which mostly reflect the areas it operates in.
Pupil-weighted Progress 8 is -0.17 (interval -0.23 to -0.11). The interval sits entirely below zero, so this looks like a real shortfall rather than noise. Weighted by 2,341 pupils across 11 schools with a published Progress 8 score (minimum 2).
Ofsted across the trust

Ofsted outcomes across this trust are mixed: 9 Good, 1 Requires improvement; 7 have no overall grade. Historic overall grades and current report cards are different systems and are not averaged.
