Trust overview

All 5 schools with reported data have staff costs below the DfE's 78% review point.

2 of 5 schools hold reserves below the DfE's 5% reference point.

Trust-average reserves have fallen about 12 percentage points over two years of published returns.

2 of 5 schools spent more than their income in the latest year. Single-year deficits are common around growth, building works or falling rolls; multi-year patterns matter more than one snapshot.

Absence is at or below the national average in 4 of 6 schools.

All 6 inspected schools meet the expected standard or above — Good or better under the legacy framework, or Expected standard or above under the Report Card.

Generated from published DfE and Ofsted data — year-end snapshots that cannot show in-year plans, restructuring or local context. Reference points are DfE review thresholds, not judgements.
