TRUST-WIDE PROGRESSION · IN DEVELOPMENT

One standard of post-18 support across every sixth form in your trust.

Today, each school runs its own application support. We are building the trust layer: school-level dashboards, central comparison and board-ready reporting, so post-18 support is consistent by design, not dependent on which school has the strongest coordinator.

WHY TRUSTS LOOK AT THIS

From eight different processes to one standard.

A trust does not have a personal statement problem. It has a consistency problem: support that depends on which sixth form has the strongest coordinator, and no shared answer to who is stuck across the trust. The trust layer is being built to change that.

Across the trust today

Each sixth form runs its own process, its own spreadsheet, its own quality
Central leaders ask each school for an update and wait for it to come back
A student's support depends on which school they happen to attend

With the trust layer (in development)

One standard of application support, adopted consistently across every sixth form
School-level dashboards roll up into one comparable trust view
Board reporting drawn from the same evidence, every school, every term

VARIANCE REDUCTION

One process, not eight.

Strong application support should not be a postcode lottery inside your own trust. The trust layer is being built so every sixth form runs the same visible process, with the same risk flags and the same next actions.

A shared standard of support

Every student in the trust would carry a pathway, a status and a next action. The process is the same in each sixth form, so support is not a matter of which coordinator a student happened to get.

The same risk flags everywhere

Undecided pathway, no evidence entries, reference not finalised, deadline near. Each school surfaces the same flags early, so no sixth form is quietly running the season out of inboxes.

Consistency by design

Variance falls because the process is shared, not because staff are watched. The standard lives in the system, and travels with a new coordinator on day one.

DASHBOARDS AND COMPARISON

School-level dashboards, one trust view.

Each sixth form gets its own control room. On the roadmap, those school-level dashboards roll up into a central view, so trust leaders can compare like with like without emailing eight coordinators.

A control room per school

Every sixth form sees its own cohort: who is on track, who is stuck, what support has already been given. That school-level view is the live capability we extend from.

Comparison without chasing

In development: a central view that compares schools on process measures, not league-table outcomes. Are different sixth forms surfacing risk early and acting in time.

Like-for-like measures

Comparison is built on shared process signals, route recorded, risk flagged, support logged in time, never on destinations or offers, which arrive too late to manage.

BOARD AND ASSURANCE

Reporting your board can actually read.

Boards and members want a defensible answer before lagging destination measures land. The trust layer is being built to produce that reporting from the same evidence in every school, drawn from the process, not assembled by hand each term.

Board-ready reporting

On the roadmap: a termly trust report that shows how every sixth form is supporting post-18 progression, fairly and in time, so the board sees a coherent process rather than eight separate updates.

Standardised implementation

A shared rollout playbook so each sixth form adopts the process the same way. New schools join the standard rather than reinventing it. In development.

Central quality assurance

On the roadmap: a central view of how consistently the process is run across schools, so the trust can support the sixth forms that need it, never to monitor individual staff.

HOW THE TRUST LAYER WORKS

Standardise once, see across, report up.

The school-level control room exists today. The cross-school layer described in these three steps is on the roadmap, built to extend from what each sixth form already runs.

Adopt one standard

Each sixth form runs the same visible process, with the same risk flags and next actions. The standard is set centrally and travels with every coordinator.

See across schools

In development: school-level dashboards roll up into one trust view, comparing sixth forms on process quality and timely support, not on destinations.

Report to the board

On the roadmap: a termly trust report drawn from the same evidence in every school, so members can assure a coherent, fair process across the whole trust.

WHAT THE BOARD VIEW WOULD SHOW

Process consistency, school by school.

A preview of the trust view in development: each sixth form shown side by side on shared process measures, route recorded, risk flagged early, support logged in time, with no-route risk surfaced before destinations are decided. The same evidence in every school, comparable at a glance, with the detail one click away. No league tables, no destination claims, no individual staff monitoring.
