SERVICES
What we do for schools and trusts.
Three tiers. Every one includes dashboards, written reports, and presentations — delivered by us.
Data Health Check
A one-off diagnostic engagement. We take the data your school already has — SIMS exports, spreadsheets, budget reports — and turn it into one live dashboard, one written insight report, and one presentation to your senior leadership team or governing body.
This is the fastest way to see what Northbridge can do, with zero ongoing commitment. Most schools upgrade to the Annual Partnership after seeing the results.
Who it's for
Perfect for schools that want to see Northbridge in action before committing to an ongoing partnership. Also ideal ahead of an Ofsted visit or before a new academic year.
What's included
- ✓Data audit and quality assessment
- ✓One bespoke Power BI dashboard (you choose: attendance, outcomes, or finance)
- ✓Written insight narrative (8–12 pages, plain English, inspection-ready)
- ✓1-hour presentation to SLT or governing body
- ✓Written recommendations for next steps
Timeline
5–7 working days from data receipt.
Annual Insight Partnership
The ongoing relationship. We maintain 3–5 live dashboards covering the data domains that matter most to your school, deliver quarterly insight reports with written narratives explaining what's changed and why, and present the findings directly to your SLT and governors each term.
You never touch a spreadsheet. Billed termly (3 payments) or annually with 10% discount.
Who it's for
Designed for schools that want a consistent, professional data function without the cost of a full-time analyst. Headteachers, Deputy Heads, CFOs, and SBMs all tell us this is the service that changes how they run their school.
What's included
- ✓3–5 hosted Power BI dashboards (your choice of domains)
- ✓Quarterly insight reports (4 per year)
- ✓Quarterly presentations to SLT and/or governors
- ✓Ongoing dashboard maintenance and data refresh
- ✓Priority email and Teams support
- ✓Annual strategy session
Timeline
Dashboards live within 2 weeks of data receipt. Ongoing from there.
MAT Partnership
Everything in the Annual Partnership, scaled for multi-academy trusts. Trust-level overview dashboards that aggregate data across all schools, plus individual school-level reporting. Cross-school comparison and variation analysis. Termly presentations to the trust board.
Priced per school (£3,500–4,500/school/year, minimum 3 schools). The more schools, the lower the per-school cost.
Who it's for
Built for CEOs, Executive Principals, and Trust CFOs who need a clear picture across their whole portfolio — and who need to present that picture confidently to trustees, ESFA, and Ofsted.
What's included
- ✓All Annual Partnership deliverables for each school
- ✓Trust-wide aggregation dashboard
- ✓Cross-school comparison and variation views
- ✓Termly trust board report and presentation
- ✓Per-school dashboard access and insight narratives
- ✓CEO and CFO-level executive summaries
