Look Deeper

Market research reaps results

Market research provides valuable insights as to your SW/COTs, a true understanding of perceptions of your organisation and word of mouth commentary, a benchmark to measure changes over time, and – importantly – informs strategic recommendations that enable your school to attain its vision.

Many schools produce annual or biennial surveys – which is great – but not enough to capture a full picture of attitudes, perceptions and suggestions. As highlighted by the Johari window – you don’t know what you don’t know. This is where our team of education marketing specialists come into play.

Market Research for Schools

After careful review of your situation we will most likely recommend some market research for your school. What that recommendation will be will be unique to your specific challenges, however it is likely to involve one or more of the following services and audiences:

Research Services
  • Focus Groups or workshops
  • Telephone interviews or surveys
  • Face to face interviews
  • Online survey monkey research
  • Online and competitor research
Research Audiences
  • Staff
  • Parents
  • Non-school parents who decided to send their children elsewhere or move schools,
  • P&F members
  • Board members
  • Local business leaders / school partners
  • Re-location agents
  • Alumni
  • Department of Education
  • Other contacts

Our strength is in knowing who to research, what to ask them, how to design effective questionnaires, how to conduct interviews/surveys and how to piece it all together.

This research is done in house or for large-scale projects we work with Footprints Research.
