The information is not available in the format requested but is recorded in the attached Education Funding Agency (EFA) annual report and accounts for financial years 2012-13 and 2013-14 and on GOV.UK. Data from before financial year 2012-13 is not available as this is when the Department for Education began consolidating academy trusts’ accounts into its own.
