Across the 29 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 0.02 (interval -0.07 to 0.10). That interval spans zero, so this is not a win: the group is not statistically distinguishable from average. A score such as +0.2 with a ±0.4 interval is noise, not a result. Weighted by 1,062 pupils across 4 schools with a published Progress 8 score (minimum 2).
Ofsted across the trust
16 of the trust's 34 schools carry a historic one-word grade; 18 do not. Current report cards grade separate aspects and cannot be reduced to a replacement overall score. A trust that has taken on struggling schools may carry their old grades for years. What changed.
Ofsted outcomes across this trust are mixed: 1 Outstanding, 14 Good, 1 Requires improvement; 18 have no overall grade. Historic overall grades and current report cards are different systems and are not averaged.
