The best thing about Access software is that it’s really affordable for schools. We are still able to afford specialist software that is sector specific and meets the need of the Trust and schools, within our extremely tight budgets

Adele France - Chief Financial & Ops Officer

Minerva Learning Trust

Access Education People is brilliant, staff across the trust can view information relating to their own school, while those responsible for overseeing the trust have different login rights and are able to gain a higher level of visibility. This has helped harness a collaborative working relationship within the trust.

Debra Briault - Chief Operating Officer

The Circle Trust

I’m delighted with the Access software, the experience and the relationship we have with our technology partner – it really complements our trust.

Julie Pearman - Chief Finance & Ops Officer

The Good Shepherd Catholic Trust

The Access software has helped streamline our processes. Downloading the required reports across our 45 sites, now takes around a day per month and without the software, this would take much longer.

Rachel Carter - Head of Finance

TKAT

We process over 200 new joiners each year and I’d estimate that the software has saved us around 100 hours of time throughout the admissions process.

Kerry Wilson - Admissions registrar

Latymer Upper School

Using Education Demand with our students has been extremely engaging. Used in school or at home, students can practice their key skills in order to better prepare themselves for assessments. This way of learning is the future and we highly recommend the Teaching and Learning resource and will continue to enjoy using it. Our students have thrived using these materials this year.

Mairi Godlet - Principal Teacher Support

St. Margaret’s Academy

Invaluable resource, easily embedded across the school with staff and students.
