Surveys for multi-academy trusts

Every school in your trust can run the same surveys, in the same words, and see each result beside England's published figure. That gives trust leaders one consistent picture across schools, and gives each head a comparison that means something on its own.

What a trust gets today

  • The same surveys in every school. Staff, parent and pupil surveys from the survey library, so results from different schools answer the same questions.
  • Each school beside England, not only beside each other. A school's report sets its results beside England's figure for its own phase where one is published, so a small primary is not judged against a large secondary.
  • Each school's own account and results. Each school has its own account, its own results and its own plan. A trust leader can be added to each school's team, with the role the school chooses, to see that school's report.
  • One invoice, if you want it. We can send one invoice to the trust for all its schools, on request.

Coming next: a trust account, and a trust report across your schools.

Surveys written for trusts

  • Joining the trust: for 6 to 12 months after a school converts or transfers. Asks staff how clear the changes have been, whether the school's identity is respected, and how the workload of the move has felt.
  • Trust central services: asks staff across the trust how well HR, finance, IT, estates, school improvement and central communication serve them, so you can set the top-slice and service plans on evidence.
  • Middle leaders: capacity and support: needs 10 responses in each group, so it works well across a trust where single schools are too small.

Trust discounts

Published discounts on the Annual plan, by the number of schools in the trust taking it:
