It's time for #Friday5 - the latest in education and youth policy:

1. Good Things Foundation on digital divides
2. National Foundation for Educational Research teacher labour market survey
3. Coram Family and Childcare childcare survey
4. FFT Education Datalab on school absences
5. New approach to int. assessment?

As key stage 3 students moved up a year in secondary school, their rate of absence increased – particularly for disadvantaged pupils, FFT Education Datalab analysis of data from the autumn term shows
tes.com/magazine/news/…

We wanted to understand whether schools with a higher percentage of disadvantaged pupils had a greater rate of absences 🔍

#SchoolAbsense #EdChat

It's well known that MATs are getting bigger. But how is their composition changing?

We take a look in our latest post.

📢 LATEST POST: Where are all the secondary-only MATs?

There are 78 large primary-only MATs and just the one large secondary-only MAT. And we've looked into why that might be.

ffteducationdatalab.org.uk/2024/03/where-…

Primary-only MATs are fairly common. But secondary-only MATs are not.

Our latest post looks at why. (And we don't think it's just because there are more primary than secondary schools in England.)
