How Oscar Research maintains its Schools data

Oscar Research does more than compile school names and job titles. Our Schools Database is built through ongoing research into individual Schools, Multi-Academy Trusts, parent organisations and the people responsible for running them.

The structure behind the School matters

Schools can sit within Local Authorities, Academy Trusts, Federations or independent structures. Oscar records these relationships so customers can understand both the individual School and the wider organisation behind it.

More than contact data

Additional profiling such as pupil numbers, gender, age range, School attributes, parent organisation, Ofsted, Federation and geographic information allows customers to segment and understand the market beyond job title alone.

Continuously researched

Our Schools data is continually reviewed and updated as part of Oscar Research's wider research programme. Researchers cycle and review the underlying data every 4–6 months, while the live counts on this page are recalculated every 24 hours using our latest research.
