These reports are individually commissioned, researched and produced, with the aim of providing school leaders, stakeholders and external audiences with a detailed demographic and contextual profile of their school. There is very little that schools can do to solve the inequalities that exist in wider society and they should not be held responsible for the different educational outcomes that these inequalities produce. However, armed with detailed information about the specific challenges their pupils face, they can focus their resources and support as effectively as possible to improve children’s life chances. The report combines current data relating to children attending the school with the most up to date local and national demographic data available, in order to provide insight into a range of issues which might affect the outcomes of children. It draws attention to the groups and cohorts which may be most affected by these issues, and throughout the document, key questions which the school may need to consider are highlighted.

"It is not an over exaggeration to suggest that this report was the most critical tool that helped the leadership team and the governors prepare for the inspection, and in particular the 90 min phone call.  When 45 minutes of that phone call was spent on telling the lead inspector where these kids come from and what we do to take them out of that on daily basis and give them the tools to get them out of it completely when they grow up - you know you are on to something." Martin Lumb, Headteacher, Hunslet Carr Primary school.

"I can wholeheartedly recommend commissioning Ian to produce a demography report for any school. We are about to rewrite our long-term vision and Ian's work has revealed deep insights into the range of social contexts, living conditions, deprivation factors, academic qualifications, health and ethnicity factors influencing the lives of our children and families. Particularly interesting has been his work focussed on each cohort and their contrasting socio-economic circumstances. The quality of research, government data and the blend of maps, tables and text alongside hypotheses and key questions makes the document both readable and challenging." Nicholas Sykes, Headteacher, Chapel Allerton Primary school.

"We would thoroughly recommend commissioning 'The Beyond The School Gates' report, to any school or college that is keen to undertake an objective review of the pupil cohort and the community that the school serves. The evidence that is surfaced, analysed, and further broken down and clearly presented, has enabled us to identify some key factors and develop bespoke interventions. For those who enjoy objective data and use it to inform their practice, this report really is something to savour. It will inform our school development plans, bids, and all sorts, in the short to medium term." Darren Gidman, Headteacher, St John Bosco Arts College.
