What Clients Say
“Academic Profiles have consistently provided excellent information that has helped us continue to review and refine our teaching and learning. It is crucial that our practices are based on the best possible data and analysis, and we look forward to continuing to work with Academic Profiles so that we can best serve the learning of our students.”
“Academic profiles provides a comprehensive report that assists our understanding of the results and helps the school make decisions for the future.”
“Academic Profiles is as good as the almost meaningless league tables are bad. Academic Profiles tracks all the information that schools who really care about their kids actually want to know – how all students have gone compared to their ability, how all subjects have gone compared to the ability of the students in them and how the school has really performed. It presents it to you in a way that allows you to make improvements for students in future years. It turns the straw of raw data into something approaching gold.”
“We find the data provided by Academic Profiles to be informative and accurate. We would recommend their services.”
“The analysis of the results is comprehensive. Looking at the Value Added data (being able to compare how students perform compared to Year 10) is extremely useful in seeing what subjects students underperformed in. The data helps target areas for improvement. A very professional service.”
