Teacher turnover in larger Multi-academy trusts (Mats) is 19.5% compared to 14.4% in local authority schools at secondary level, impacting student outcomes and educational standards.
The Education Policy Institute found that larger Mats also struggle with higher rates of persistent pupil absence, suspensions, and unexplained departures, emphasizing challenges facing academy trusts.
Academy schools, part of Mats, have surged under Conservative leadership, with 8 out of 10 state-funded secondary schools becoming academies, raising questions about their impact on teacher retention and student well-being.
High teacher turnover is linked to poorer overall attainment and student destinations post-16, highlighting the importance of addressing retention challenges to maintain educational quality in academies and Mats.
