“…We found that the impact of joining a chain dominates -while the effect of conversion is small and insignificant. This is consistent withNeri and Pasini (2020) -showing that most of the benefits of primary school conversion to academy are concentrated amongst those that join a chain.21 We also investigated whether our results differ for primary/secondary schools and for the sponsor-led/converter academies (results are not tabulated). Our evidence shows that the impact of joining a MAT is almost three times larger for primary schools (8.9% of a standard deviation) than for secondary schools (3.5% of a standard deviation) -but significant for both.…”

“…To do so, we devise a differences-in-differences (DiD) strategy that focuses on 'legacy' students who were enrolled at the school before this joined a chain. This approach has previously been used to study the impact of academisation in England (see, Eyles and Machin, 2019; Bertoni et al, 2020;and Neri and Pasini, 2020) and is similar to the use of 'grandfathered' students by Abdulkadiroglu et al (2016) for US charter takeovers. Its key advantage is that it by-passes the potential endogeneity of pupils' school choice in relation to a school's decision to join a chain by considering only students who were at the school before such decision was taken.…”
