Our online data reporting and visualisation tool, Lodeseeker®, is used by individual schools to target areas of improvement and to demonstrate to OFSTED how they are actively monitoring performance and listening to Pupil Voice. It is used at County level by Local Authorities and Public Health to address areas of need and to target resources more effectively.
Lodeseeker® offers many different types of reports, from County overviews to detailed drill-downs and from current behaviours to longitudinal trends.
Lodeseeker® deals with different types of questions, including our slider control, which combines the power of categorical choice (as in multiple radio buttons) with numerical data capture (0-100 scale) which means that both averages and categories can be reported allowing extra insight into the data
Lodeseeker® is an intuitive, easy to use ‘point and click’ tool that requires no training to get personalised reports relevant to your needs quickly and efficiently. It is highly customisable and constantly improving.
