MMG Education are leaders in tailored school stakeholder research and performance benchmarking. We provide a range of stakeholder specific/topic specific research for schools providing research informed information across key areas. Our Specialty Area reviews include:
Student Performance Segmentation Model
MMG’s Student Performance Segmentation Model is a highly effective tool that assists schools in understanding how students at different levels of academic performance experience school life.
Using academic performance data supplied by the school, MMG segments a selected student Year group of interest into four performance groups.
Each group is then profiled against existing MMG student research results, allowing schools to compare key aspects of school life across lower, middle and higher-performing students.
The analysis may include areas such as:
- Overall Satisfaction
- Academic Program and Quality of Teaching
- Student Pastoral Care / Student Wellbeing
- Bullying
- Self-Determination Theory: Autonomy, Relatedness and Competence
- Values or Religious Education
- Co-curricular Activities
By linking academic performance with student satisfaction/experience data, the model provides schools with clear, evidence-based insights to identify priority groups to develop targeted intervention and support strategies.
