Inside the data
Live profiles with integrated charts. Every school and trust in England, updated with each data refresh.
Built for the people who need it
MATpulse serves different needs across the education sector.
For governors and trustees
Trust-level financial health, governance data from Companies House, risk indicators across all member schools, and due diligence tools for MAT transfers.
Governance guide→For school leaders
Six years of financial trends, workforce data, attendance benchmarks, and Ofsted history in a single profile. Built for SEF preparation and Ofsted readiness.
Find your school→For journalists and researchers
Sortable trust metrics, key indicators, central services data, and Companies House officer records. The cross-trust context the sector has been missing.
Compare trusts→Six datasets, one page per school
Finance, Ofsted, performance, workforce, attendance and governance data joined into a single profile. Every metric traceable to its DfE or ESFA source — no black boxes, no proprietary adjustments.
DfE thresholds surfaced for context
Metrics highlighted against published DfE reference points — staff costs, reserves, absence, workforce pressure, and more. Designed to support your self-evaluation, not to judge. Context and interpretation guides included.
Every academy trust, sortable and filterable
Compare 1,000+ trusts by school count, KS2 results, staff costs, reserves, absence, and Ofsted outcomes. Filter by region and trust size. The cross-trust context the sector has been missing.
Board composition from Companies House
Current directors, appointment dates, tenure, and turnover indicators for every academy trust. Board size flags, overdue accounts alerts, and former officer history — governance transparency at a glance.
Compare against schools like yours
Rank your school against peers matched by phase, size, FSM rate, and region. Understand where you sit in the distribution — not just against the national average.
Is this trust actually improving its schools?
Intake-adjusted benchmarking, pre/post membership analysis, and within-trust consistency scoring. The question every RSC and board member asks — answered with data.
Six government sources, integrated
Each school profile draws from six official datasets that normally sit in separate spreadsheets and portals. We join, clean, and compute derived metrics so you don't have to.
