Could measuring engagement give schools a lead indicator to act upon before problems with attendance or attainment fully take root? Engagement data gives schools a powerful lead indicator to help prevent problems rather than just respond to them. Schools with employees reporting higher job satisfaction and connection to their work have significantly higher pupil engagement. Our research shows a school’s engagement trends can shift quickly within a single year. We’re particularly keen to work with all-through schools, single-sex schools, maintained schools and trusts running cross-cutting strategies on engagement or attendance.
