2. Academies are associated with the multi-academy trust they were part of on 12 September at the start of the academic year. Institutions that joined a MAT during the academic year are not included
3. 'All multi-academy trust institutions' contain convertor academies, sponsored academies, free schools, studio schools, and university technical colleges (UTCs)
4. Eligible academies include academies in a multi-academy trust that met the inclusion criteria, i.e., a multi-academy trust that contained at least three academies with results at that phase of education/cohort and where those academies have been in the multi-academy trust for at least three academic years. Ineligible academies were either in a multi-academy trust that did not meet the inclusion criteria or were in a multi-academy trust that met the inclusion criteria, but the academy had not been in the multi-academy trust for at least three academic years.
