School Improvement
We produce visual analysis of a wide range of education data to support schools, local authorities, MATs and school partnerships to improve outcomes for children
About our school improvement work
At Mime, we are passionate about supporting schools and educational organisations to make data-driven decisions that improve outcomes for students. This work is important to us because we believe that data has the power to drive positive change in education, helping those working with young people make informed choices that enhance teaching and learning.
How we can help
Through our data and research work, we streamline processes to help schools, academy trusts, local authorities and other education organisations understand performance, identify areas for improvement and good practice, and evaluate impact. Our specific school improvement services include:
Bespoke dashboards and infographics

Data platforms
Designing and building intuitive and bespoke data platforms for users to produce their own analysis and data visualisations
National Pupil Database & Longitudinal Educational Outcomes
Using the National Pupil Database (NPD) and Longitudinal Educational Outcomes (LEO) data to generate new insights and produce research reports, for example on pathways into employment
Streamlining data processes

We also have a range of off-the-shelf dashboards for local authorities and education providers.

School Profiles
Our primary and secondary profiles provide a comprehensive summary of numerous aspects of a school, including attainment and progress, attendance, exclusions, workforce and finance, in a consistent visual format. They include visual cues to help you easily pull out key points, benchmark comparisons and trends over time.
SS Tracker
The SS Tracker is our online tool for tracking and evidencing the progress made by young people with SEND, with a particular focus on non-academic outcomes. This allows MATs, schools and young people themselves to recognise and demonstrate progress that does not show up in traditional performance measures.
Inclusion Index
We know that many schools work hard to be inclusive, but that this work is often not seen by traditional measures of school performance. Building on our popular local area Inclusion Index, we developed our school-level Inclusion Index. This draws together a range of indicators around inclusion, highlighting each school’s strengths and weaknesses.
