Our new report, created in partnership with SIMS, is giving school business leaders a valuable tool to assess and enhance their use of Management Information Systems 

Titled Solutions Driven: Data Insight Report, the publication is based on extensive feedback from school business professionals and is available now as a free downloadable resource. It offers a clear, data-led picture of how SBLs are engaging with their systems and where the pressure points lie. What sets this report apart is its practical focus. It doesn’t just highlight challenges – it offers actionable recommendations and system checklists that can be implemented at school or trust level.

The timing is particularly relevant. According to a 2022 Edelman survey, 79% of employees believe technology has a positive impact on their workplace. However, other studies show that around 42% of employees feel only somewhat confident in using digital tools, with 11% saying they are not confident at all.

This is where the Data Insight Report comes into its own. By distilling complex feedback into usable insights, it gives SBLs a firm starting point for internal review and external benchmarking. The fact that it is freely available means every school, regardless of size or budget, can benefit from the information and support it provides.
