flag The Fairer Schools Index reveals many underprivileged schools in England perform better when adjusted for socio-economic factors.

flag The Fairer Schools Index shows that many schools in deprived areas of England are performing much better than previously thought, after adjusting for factors like pupil demographics and socio-economic status. flag For example, Red House Academy in Sunderland climbed 1,919 places. flag The index, developed by the University of Bristol, aims to give a more accurate picture of school performance by considering variables like ethnicity and deprivation, rather than just exam results. flag This new approach is being recognized by bodies like the Northern Powerhouse Partnership and is seen as a fairer way to evaluate schools.
