Inclusion intelligence for schools and trusts

See what your systems are telling you.

Indicant brings leadership judgement, evidence, quantitative data and improvement planning into one structured view of inclusion. It helps leaders move from instinct to evidence, from evidence to action, and from action to measurable change.

A system view of inclusion

Inclusion is rarely one problem in one place.

Attendance, SEND, behaviour, curriculum, alternative provision, family experience and outcomes interact. Indicant helps leaders examine those connections rather than treating each issue as a separate initiative.

01

Diagnose

Complete a structured inclusion diagnostic across eight domains using maturity judgements, evidence confidence and multiple leadership perspectives.

02

Understand

Bring together domain scores, leadership variance, quantitative evidence and system signals to identify where practice is secure and where risk is emerging.

03

Act

Turn evidence into a focused 90-day improvement plan with accountable actions, success criteria, evidence requirements and named owners.

04

Track

Compare completed cycles over time, review the impact of previous actions and see whether improvement is sustained, stalled or deteriorating.

A better inclusion workflow

Less chasing evidence. More time understanding what it means.

Indicant replaces fragmented self-evaluation with one repeatable workflow that connects evidence, professional judgement, improvement action and review.

Before

The fragmented way

Manual, duplicated and difficult to sustain

Evidence is spread across documents, spreadsheets and separate conversations.

Leaders spend time gathering information before they can begin interpreting it.

Improvement priorities can become disconnected from the evidence that generated them.

Governors and trustees often receive broad assurance without a sharp line of sight to risk.

Each review cycle starts again rather than building a cumulative record of change.

Fragmented evidence creates duplicated work and weaker follow-through.
With Indicant

The Indicant way

Structured, evidence-led and action-focused

One inclusion diagnostic across eight connected domains.

Evidence prompts help leadership teams make stronger, more consistent judgements.

System signals make strengths, contradictions and risks easier to see.

90-day plans turn findings into owned, trackable action.

Longitudinal intelligence shows what improved, remained stable or deteriorated over time.

One evidence base. Clearer priorities. Better follow-through.

The Indicant Inclusion Framework

Data protection by design

Inclusion intelligence without unnecessary pupil-level data.

Indicant is designed around strategic school and trust improvement. The core diagnostic does not require pupil names or UPNs, helping organisations minimise the personal data they need to process while retaining a strong evidence base for inclusion improvement.

Schools

Built for school improvement

Schools get a clear inclusion profile, evidence-led priorities, professional reports and a practical 90-day plan. The platform supports leadership teams to test assumptions and focus effort where it is most likely to matter.

Indicant for schools

Trusts

Built for trusts and multi-school groups

Trust leaders can compare schools side by side, see an aggregate inclusion profile, identify recurring strengths and risks, understand cross-school action themes and generate trust-level reporting without flattening school context.

Indicant for trusts

Outputs that support action and assurance

Show the evidence, not just the score.

Indicant produces clear reports for senior leaders, governors, trustees and improvement teams, so the same evidence can support different conversations without losing the underlying picture.

Designed for repeated improvement cycles

Not a one-off audit.

Indicant is designed to be revisited. Each completed cycle becomes a baseline for the next, allowing leaders to see what changed, where improvement held, where risk persisted and whether previous actions had the intended effect.
