Empowering your team.
Improving your school.

iAbacus is more than just an evaluation and planning tool; it's a catalyst for a more effective, collaborative, and sustainable culture of improvement. Discover how our unique, research-driven approach delivers tangible benefits for your entire school community.

Proven, research-driven approach

iAbacus combines over 50 years of leadership and improvement methodologies with intuitive design. Its process is grounded in research, ensuring that every cycle of evaluation and planning drives genuinely impactful improvements.

Empowering, guided process

iAbacus leads users through a purposeful cycle of reflection and action. At each stage, it prompts you to explore what's helping or hindering progress, turning evaluation into a deeper learning experience rather than a mere checklist.

Fosters collaboration

Break down silos and build a culture of shared responsibility. Multiple users can add their perspectives, share evidence, and compare evaluations, creating a genuinely collective view of strengths and areas for improvement.

Powerful insights for leaders

Our unique 'Overlay' and 'Stack' features provide a panoramic view of performance across teams or schools. This helps leaders spot patterns, identify best practices, and make more informed, strategic decisions.

Fully customisable for your context

iAbacus adapts effortlessly to your environment. Use templates aligned with national frameworks (Ofsted, Estyn, etc.) or collaborate with our team to create a bespoke approach that mirrors your school's unique goals.

Clear, one-click reporting

Simplify communication with concise, visually compelling PDF reports. Each report can be customised for its audience, whether it's for governors, inspectors, or staff appraisals, ensuring everyone stays aligned.

Saves time & reduces workload

Our intuitive, step-by-step interface means staff spend less time on complex paperwork and more time on meaningful reflection. Unifying evidence, judgements, and action plans in one place eliminates duplication of work.

Sustains continuous improvement

iAbacus is built on a cyclical process that creates a living record of your improvement journey. Each new judgement sits alongside previous ones, so everyone can see how far you’ve come and what works best.

A true partnership, not just software

Every subscription includes unlimited, bespoke support. From whole-staff training to one-to-one coaching and custom template design, we are your dedicated partners in achieving your improvement goals.
