As we navigate through the challenges and opportunities within the education sector, this report serves as a vital tool for assessing your academy trust's performance against industry benchmarks. In the 2022/23 financial year, academy trusts continued to grapple with the lingering effects of inflationary pressures, which first emerged in the preceding financial year. These pressures have notably impacted both non-pay and pay costs, including the implementation of new staff pay awards.
Our benchmarking report is meticulously designed to empower your trust in identifying areas of strength, potential weaknesses, and opportunities for improvement. By analysing key ratios tailored to the size of your academy trust – whether a Single Academy Trust (SAT), Small MAT, Medium MAT, or Large MAT – you gain actionable insights to inform strategic decision-making and enhance operational efficiency.
