Our learners have now made improved progress in real terms for three years running. We are confident that in 2022, all four academies will go on to meet or exceed the national average for achieving Grade 5 or above in English and Mathematics. This represents a significant improvement from 2017 when the Trust was established Their results are a massive improvement on last year; they are the product of the Trust’s investment in high quality teaching and learning in all subject areas. It is great news for our staff, too, and I want to send a big ‘thank you’ to all of them.
