Background
This concept came about after our experiences in Schools, watching our customers struggle to compare data across their establishment(s). It turns out that school analytics is a minefield! For example, what would you do if Ofsted requested information regarding your Pupil Premium students, however several different departments are involved and in the case of MAT’s several different schools! You request all the relevant information but, as it is coming from several sources, it will invariably be in a variety of formats, none of it consistent!
This means that you have to physically extrapolate the data then break it down accordingly. Then once all of it is in front of you you have to compare it all in order to come up with some meaningful information. This can be extraordinarily time-consuming and we’ve witnessed first-hand the stress it causes in schools.
Our Schools BI solution has been specifically developed to make this aspect of your role much much easier. We designed Schools BI to address this issue in schools. It is very niche and is constantly evolving to meet new requirements in schools. It also became clear during the development process that every School or Trust has their own individual needs, and that the analytics wanted differs from School to School or Trust to Trust. So we made the decision not to limit the Schools BI solution to a single set of standard dashboards, but to factor in that everyone wants a slightly different bespoke solution. In essence we want to partner with you develop the analytics you desire to most effectively benefit your instituion.
Vision
We all know how important your data is, and used in the correct manner your School or MAT analytics can have a substantial impact on how your educational establishment operates. However, it needs to be made available to relevant parties, on demand and in a format that is simple to read and easy to comprehend.
The correct usage of data can drive improved performance, result in more effective teaching and influence pupil outcomes. We want to help ensure that happens.
Using one solution to access and visualise your data is by far the most efficient way of monitoring your school or MAT’s trends. It significantly reduces the amount of valuable time it takes to collate, process and report on relevant information.
With Schools BI you will have access to specially designed education dashboards so that you can monitor the data you require at a glance, and with the facility to share that information with other senior leaders.
