Arbor Insight for schools and MATs
See your school’s performance on all your key measures from the DfE - including comparisons with similar, national, local and top quintile schools - in easy-to-use dashboards. Click on any measure to drill down and uncover which student groups are driving over and underperformance.
Our free School Performance Summary report shows your school’s overall performance in context by benchmarking you against local, national, and “schools like you” measures. Great for printing and sharing with governors and senior leaders.
Schools use our most in-depth report to compare their past performance to similar, national and top quintile benchmarks. Visualise your progress over time with 3 year rolling averages, and see how your local area demographics impact results.
A set of 5 reports showing the gaps between different student groups across attendance and attainment. Get individual reports on Prior Attainment, Ethnicity, Disadvantage, Gender and SEN. Use them to identify which areas in your school to focus on and why.
Analyse the attainment and progress of different demographic groups at your school over the last 3 years. Use this report to identify where you could be making more progress.
Benchmark your school or academy’s income and expenditure patterns over the last 3 years to help identify where to save money and plan your next budget.
Get dashboards which aggregate your academies’ latest performance data and benchmark your MAT against national and Top Quintile averages. Drill down to see how individual schools, demographic groups or custom-built clusters are affecting results, or remove schools from your analysis to see how that changes your overall performance.
Our new report for MAT leaders helps you see your trust in a new light. Built especially for your trust, your report brings together the key measures you need to understand your MAT’s unique strengths and challenges in a national context.
