Statistics in schools have a controversial history. On one hand, statistics bring the promise of impartial decision-making and using the magic of numbers to see what works, and what doesn't. On the other hand, statistics can be manipulated or represent a "black box" which school leaders often find difficult to understand, leading educators to ignore data in favor of intuition.

​

Statistics can become a powerful tool when yielded correctly. Data-drive strategy and near-real time accountability add real value to administrative decisions, especially when used in conjunction with the lived insights of experienced educators. 

 

Our goal is to help education leaders use their data well, by producing elegant and practical data visualizations that inspire and inform. The interactive example below provides a good illustration of what's possible.
