Partnered with leading schools and groups

One dashboard. Total group visibility.

Your group dashboard gives you a single, live view of performance across every school — and lets you move from the big picture to the detail in seconds.

  • Build your own school groups. Compare schools by phase, geography or any other grouping that matters to your strategy.
  • Track performance over time. Compare attainment and progress across terms, subjects and assessments to spot trends, outliers and emerging issues.
  • Drill down by phase and year group. Move from Early Years through to KS5 and quickly focus on the cohorts that matter.
  • Understand pupil groups. Compare outcomes for SEN, FSM, EAL, Pupil Premium and other groups to identify gaps across your schools.

Group-wide performance overview

Get instant visibility into how every school in your network is performing. Spot high achievers, identify areas for improvement, and drive consistent progress across the group.

At the core of this is age-standardised scoring — Quest lets you analyse age-standardised scores across the group and at individual school level, see how each compares to the national average, review the value-add each school is delivering, and track progress over time as pupils move through the group.

School-by-school deep dives

Drill into individual school performance to understand strengths, challenges, and opportunities. Compare similar schools and share strategies that work.

Quest is built for drilling down: move seamlessly from a whole-group overview, into an individual school's dashboard and reports, and all the way down to an individual pupil's results — all within the same platform, without switching tools or exporting data.

Consistent benchmarking

Use standardised, curriculum-aligned data to benchmark schools against group averages and national performance — ensuring fair, accurate comparisons across every school in your group, whatever their size or intake.

Executive-level reporting

Generate compelling group-wide reports with clear visuals to share with trustees, governors, and key stakeholders. Track impact across assessment windows and academic years.

Downloadable group report PDFs give you a high-level summary of performance across the group at a glance, including:

  • Outcomes broken down by pupil group (gender, SEN, FSM, EAL, Pupil Premium)
  • Your upper- and lower-performing schools across the group for attainment, value-added, and progress
  • Individual school performance, including a full breakdown by assessment component
  • Suggested strategic priorities and action points to take to your next leadership or trustee meeting

Frequently asked questions

Which assessments are available through Quest?

Quest offers a comprehensive suite of standardised assessments measuring attainment, potential, and attitudes:

  • Maths, English, and Science assessments for Years 1–9
  • Cognitive Potential assessments for Years 1–12
  • Wellbeing surveys for Years 1–12, covering attitudes, engagement, and wellbeing
  • EYFS and Phonics assessments to track progress from the very start of a child's learning journey
  • Multiplication Checks to build and demonstrate fluency
  • Dyslexia Screeners for early identification of literacy difficulties and appropriate support
Will Quest Progress work with our curriculum?

Yes. Quest is designed to work alongside the curriculum you already teach.

Our curriculum-based assessments align with the National Curriculum and draw on key frameworks including Development Matters and the Ready-to-Progress criteria. Content and progression also reflect widely used teaching schemes and approaches, including White Rose Maths, Power Maths, NCETM’s teaching for mastery approach and Read Write Inc., so assessments reflect what pupils are likely to have been taught.

Quest data can also be used to help inform future outcomes, from SATs at the end of Key Stage 2 through to GCSE, A-level and IB predictions. For older pupils, our curriculum-independent cognitive assessments provide an objective measure of underlying ability, helping schools understand performance and potential.

Are Quest assessments accessible to all pupils?

Yes. All assessments comply fully with Ofqual guidance, including:

  • Extra time functionality
  • Dyslexia-friendly fonts
  • Full-screen mode
  • Text-to-speech
  • Options to pause for movement or toilet breaks

Quest also works seamlessly on any device, including tablets — so every pupil can perform at their best.

Are Quest Assessments available online or on paper?

Both. Assessments can be taken online on any device (including tablets) or printed for paper-based use.

  • Digital assessments are marked automatically and instantly
  • Paper assessments take just minutes to mark, thanks to scan-marking technology

We're on a mission to cut down your workload, however you choose to assess.

What reports will we get?

Quest gives everyone the insight they need, from group executives to class teachers:

  • Group executives: A bird’s-eye view across the group, with key trends, comparisons and learnings between schools, plus the ability to deep-dive into individual school performance.
  • Senior leaders: A whole-school view of attainment and progress, with the ability to drill down into year groups, classes and individual pupils.
  • Class teachers: Clear, actionable insight for their class — identifying strengths, gaps, pupils who may need support and priorities for teaching and intervention.

Results are available through interactive dashboards, PDF reports and downloadable CSVs, so you can explore the data in Quest, share clear reports with colleagues, or analyse the underlying data yourself.

Reports are designed to turn assessment data into useful action — helping you understand performance at every level, spot trends and gaps early, and focus attention where it will make the greatest difference.

How much training will our staff need?

Very little. Quest is built to be intuitive and accessible to everyone, but we back it up with real support:

  • Every school receives free dedicated training
  • A personal account manager helps you get the most from your data and reporting

We believe exceptional support is just as important as the product itself.

How helpful is Quest for SATs preparation?

Quest is designed first to give schools objective, reliable progress data and rich insight — helping you track attainment, spot gaps early, and avoid surprises at the end of Key Stage 2.

For SATs specifically, Quest supports familiarisation and preparation through:

  • Questions that reflect the proportional content coverage and difficulty of past SATs papers
  • Objectives directly aligned to the KS2 testing frameworks and SATs content domains
  • Diagnostic insight from Year 3, with QLAs linked to SATs strands for early intervention

Quest outcomes also map statistically to expected KS2 scaled scores, giving you a genuine accountability lens without leaving the platform — visible in dashboards, reports, and CSVs. Filters let you cut straight to what matters: borderline pupils, newly at-risk pupils, now-secure pupils, projected cohort outcomes, and intervention priorities.

You'll also find mock SATs papers with automated marking (including long-form answers), SATs chances graphs and predictions, and more — all rooted in data from the largest national sample of primary schools in the UK.

Will I get SATs, GCSE, IB and A-level indicators for my students?

Yes. Quest can provide SATs, GCSE, A-level and IB indicators using predictive models built from real pupil outcomes across a large national dataset.

These models analyse the relationship between earlier Quest assessment performance and subsequent outcomes, giving schools an evidence-based indication of what pupils may go on to achieve.

Predictions can be refined as more attainment data becomes available. For example, schools can upload actual GCSE results to enhance subsequent A-level or IB indicators.

This gives teachers and senior leaders an objective, data-driven view of likely future attainment — helping to set expectations, identify pupils who may be falling behind trajectory and intervene earlier.

Is Quest Progress useful for groups of schools / multi-academy trusts?

Yes — Quest is the first platform to give group executives a true bird's-eye view of what's happening across their schools, with objective, reliable, and consistent data in real time.

Group-level dashboards let executives:

  • Track key group statistics
  • Flag high-priority schools
  • Drill into any individual school's data in a single click

How is Quest Progress different from other assessment providers?

Quest brings assessment, progress tracking and actionable insight into one connected platform — from EYFS through to sixth form.

Assessments are quick to administer, automatically marked wherever possible and built around what pupils are actually taught, radically reducing staff workload. Results are standardised against one of the UK’s largest national datasets and turned into clear, actionable insight for everyone from class teachers to senior leaders and group executives.

Rather than simply giving schools another set of scores, Quest helps them understand what the data means and what to do next — from identifying gaps and intervention priorities to tracking progress and helping predict future SATs, GCSE, A-level and IB outcomes.

What sample size was used to standardise the Quest assessments?

Quest is standardised on one of the largest and most recent national samples available, with fresh content — data from over 40,000 pupils across the UK — giving schools accurate, reliable benchmarks.

We're not stopping there. We're continuing to expand our standardisation so that partner schools will soon be able to benchmark against schools with similar demographics — independent vs. state, selective vs. non-selective, high or low PP/FSM/SEN/EAL, geography, and more — alongside the national sample.

How much does Quest cost?

More for less. Assessment and progress tracking has become far too expensive for schools and trusts — Quest changes that.

Pricing starts from £1.50 per pupil per assessment, with discounts available for groups and bundled packages.
