The academisation of “inadequate” schools has slowed to just one conversion a month, official figures reveal.
Only three schools launched as academies between October and December following forced conversion, Schools Week analysis shows. It marks the lowest monthly opening rate on record, while September’s 11 conversions were the fewest since 2005.
The slowdown comes despite the Department for Education’s renewed academy drive that began early last year.
