Elevating Education, Everywhere

In Education Transformation we work with major government clients like DfE and OFSTED to pioneer school leadership and establish evidence for adult numeracy interventions.

Education Review is a core pillar of many of our these projects, involving technical quality assurance (eg. NPQ, NTP) or system-wide school performance review (e.g. Isle of Man DESC schools validation programme). 
Our Education Workforce Development team delivers nationwide subject-specific CPD, particularly in mathematics through our NCETM and AMSP programmes.

Our Performance Benchmarking team delivers the International Student Barometer throughout UK Higher Education, partnering with national bodies such as BUILA, UK Council for International Student Affairs, and UUKi, as well as with over 100 individual institutions to benchmark and improve the student experience. And Etio’s Financial Benchmarking solution is trusted by the Department for the Economy Northern Ireland, 50% of UK universities including members of the Russell Group, University Alliance, and MillionPlus, and 80% of UK FE colleges, to provide independent, granular analysis of cost-base, efficiency and effectiveness.

Our Surveys team has worked with over 350 Higher Education institutions across Europe to benchmark their performance across the entire student experience, helping institutions to understand where they outperform or underperform in relation to national, European and global benchmarks.

We have also worked with a wide range of national bodies to help inform internationalisation strategy, aid decision-making for student recruitment and retention, and improve the attractiveness of the nation as a study destination, including Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Latvia, The Netherlands, and Sweden. We work collaboratively with national bodies and their institutions to focus a lens on the factors impacting student decision-making and their propensity to recommend others.

Etio has extensive experience working in the Middle East, particularly in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) region. Our wide range of projects includes school inspections and evaluations; policy research; institutional readiness reviews; skills development initiatives; and supporting education ministries with strategic planning and capacity building.

Etio’s work covers all aspects of the education sector, from school improvement to tertiary education reform, emphasizing quality assurance, workforce development, and aligning education systems with national priorities.

We work with Higher Education institutions and governments across Asia, including China, Malaysia, Thailand, Singapore, Brunei, Vietnam, the Philippines, Indonesia and India to benchmark their performances across the entire student experience. The actionable insights provided by our Student Barometer and related surveys help institutions improve their competitive stance on the international stage, while simultaneously informing decisions to improve the student experience and understand the factors that that drive students to recommend their institution to others.
