We are incredibly proud to share that schools across the Flying High Partnership have once again been recognised among the top performing in the country 💫

For the second year running, the partnership has ranked in the top five multi-academy trusts nationally when compared with trusts of a similar size. These results also show that children across our schools are now achieving above pre-pandemic levels, reflecting the dedication and teamwork across our partnership.

Claire Stirland, Director of Education, said: "These results show how incredibly hard children and staff across our schools have worked to make learning the best it can be for every single child."

A particular highlight is the achievement of children recognised as disadvantaged, whose outcomes match those of all pupils nationally, showing the progress being made in closing the gap.

A huge well done to our children, staff and families across the Flying High Partnership.
