Across the 33 schools in the trust with comparable results, the average sits above 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 0.49 (interval 0.44 to 0.54). The interval sits entirely above zero, so this looks like a real gain rather than noise. Weighted by 3,103 pupils across 23 schools with a published Progress 8 score (minimum 2).
Ofsted across the trust

Ofsted outcomes across this trust are mixed: 11 Outstanding, 8 Good, 1 Requires improvement, 1 Inadequate; 15 have no overall grade. Historic overall grades and current report cards are different systems and are not averaged.
