Speak to usPerson to person

Tell us the commercial question your team needs to answer.

Begin with the question

No polished brief is required.

Show us the market, account group, campaign, sales process or workflow you need to improve. We will define what must be investigated, recommend the smallest suitable route and explain the intended output and limits before you decide.

School Market Opportunity Review

Test SCI against your own market.

Tell us what you provide, where you can deliver and which market or account question matters. We will define a focused review that tests coverage, initial evidence, likely work removed and the smallest useful route forward.

Human verification

This privacy-conscious check works with a hidden spam trap, a minimum completion time and server-side request limits. It does not use an advertising CAPTCHA or tracking cookie.

We use the information only to prepare and respond to this enquiry. It does not add you to a marketing list. Read our Privacy notice.

The protected form prepares one complete investigation brief in your own email application. You will not need to copy the brief into a second form, and the website does not retain its contents.

Please do not include pupil, safeguarding, special-category or other confidential information.

Next, review the prepared brief and choose Send. Nothing is sent until you do.

Who sits behind the work

Named responsibility. Human judgement.

School Connection Intelligence is operated by Newscast Media Group Ltd, an independent Scottish publishing, media and intelligence business.

Chris Hall, Partnerships Lead, is responsible for the initial commercial question, programme scope and the continuing relationship with participating suppliers.

SCI's research and editorial teams maintain the evidence, investigation record and quality controls. Technology supports monitoring and connection, but people remain responsible for interpretation, recommendations and every published contribution.

Our focus

Make education-market decisions better informed.

We connect evidence, operational context and human judgement so suppliers can focus effort intelligently and contribute to school conversations with substance. Schools are never treated as entries on a sales list.

Our client charter

Clarity before commitment.

What you can expect when you bring us a question, a list or a market challenge.

01

A clear scope

We agree the question, evidence boundaries, intended output and limitations before work begins.

02

Evidence before assertion

We distinguish verified facts, responsible interpretation and what remains uncertain.

03

An honest recommendation

We will say when our intelligence is relevant, when more evidence is needed and when we are not the right fit.

04

Responsible handling

Client information is used for the agreed purpose, protected appropriately and never quietly repurposed.

05

Human accountability

The platform supports monitoring and analysis. People review evidence and remain accountable for decisions.

06

Editorial independence

A commercial relationship never guarantees coverage, endorsement or influence over School Connection journalism.

One evidence spine · Two protected audiences

Connected by evidence. Separated by responsibility.

School Connection helps school and trust leaders understand what is changing, why it matters and what may come next.

School Connection Intelligence helps education suppliers understand what the same verified change means for market relevance, responsible engagement and commercial planning.

The evidence may connect the two, but a commercial relationship never buys editorial coverage, endorsement or influence.

What happens next

A straightforward route from question to decision.

You remain in control at every stage. We do not turn an initial enquiry into an assumed commitment.

  1. 01Bring one real question

    Tell us the market, account group, campaign, sales process or workflow your team needs to improve.

  2. 02We define the investigation

    We consider the evidence, underlying circumstances, appropriate scope and what cannot yet be established.

  3. 03You receive a proposed route

    We explain the smallest suitable intelligence or commercial-performance programme, outputs, responsibilities and limitations.

  4. 04You decide

    Nothing proceeds until the approach is clear and you choose to move forward.
