One in three academies missing GCSE target
Nicola Woolcock
"Almost one in three academies is failing to reach the minimum government target for GCSE results, despite benefiting from millions of pounds in public funding.
"Ed Balls, the Schools Secretary, suggested yesterday that time was running out for older academies to improve while setting a deadline for them to transform their results.
"Exam achievement has stalled or even regressed at some academies, with only a small number achieving the Government's target of 30 per cent of pupils achieving five good GCSEs, including English and maths. It was missed in this year's exam results by 40 out of 130 established academies, Mr Balls disclosed."
