ImpactEd is an award-winning, non-profit, social enterprise that exists to help evaluate, understand and improve impact in education.

In the education system, we invest huge amounts of time, money and energy in different programmes and interventions to improve outcomes for pupils. Yet far too often, we don’t know what is working – and what isn’t. We exist to address this evaluation deficit, helping schools and those working with them to better understand how they can make a difference to the lives of young people. We do this through a combination of hands-on partnership, training and consultancy, and our digital platform which makes monitoring and evaluation quicker, easier and more effective. 

Since being founded in 2017, we have grown rapidly. In 2018, we won the Teach First Innovation Award; in 2019, our work was profiled by the Department for Education; and last year we won the Fair Education Alliance’s Scaling Award to support our growth. We now reach over 60,000 young people annually and have launched a new partnership with Big Change to reach our vision of system-wide change. Our small and growing team is a mix of former teachers, academic researchers and software developers committed to maximising social impact.
