The JoinUp with Juniper Philosophy

A flexible, connected approach to driving school improvement

 

JoinUp is Juniper Education's free centralised platform that connects what matters; people, systems and services

 

challenge

We believe sustainable school improvement starts with what matters most; children and young people

Designed around the real pressures schools face, JoinUp brings together trusted, best-in-class technology with expert support to help school's work more cohesively. By connecting the people, systems and services that matter, JoinUp provides clear, reliable evidence to support SIPs and SEFs, ensuring priorities are visible, progress is measurable, and nothing falls through the gaps.

THE CHALLENGE

Shallow all-in-one MIS, or fragmented systems

Today’s schools face mounting pressures: persistent absence, behaviour challenges, increasing SEND demand, staff burnout and rising expectations. Yet these critical issues are often managed through a patchwork of disconnected tools and processes or shallow all-in-one MIS solutions.

Leaders are left stitching together partial data, reacting to crises, and carrying the weight of improvement without the clarity they need. Staff feel the burden of systems that are busy, but not truly joined-up, and pupils feel the effects of inconsistency.

The JoinUp philosophy exists to change this. By connecting the people, systems and services that matter, we give schools the visibility and confidence they need to drive meaningful, sustainable improvement.

What's included in the JoinUp Platform?

Our free centralised platform consists of four core applications which support you on your school improvement journey

Juniper MIS

Juniper MIS provides primary schools with everything they need to meet statutory data and compliance requirements, without charging for the operational storing of data or completing returns. We believe schools should invest in products and services that drive improvement and not pay twice to input their data.

We believe sustainable school improvement starts with what matters most; children and young people. By connecting people, systems and services, we ensure that school staff and leaders can focus on delivering the best possible outcomes for every child.
 
This is why we’ve launched JoinUp with Juniper, our new approach to helping schools evaluate performance and drive continuous improvement. Positive change in school often starts small, but it spreads fast when the right systems and people are joined-up.
 
Having better visibility into key insights drives continuous improvement. Whether it is a timely intervention discovered through improved clarity or collaboration on an improvement goal, it is made possible because the right data was shared with the right people at the right time.
 
Our customers already trust us with their data through our other products, and we believe schools shouldn’t have to pay thousands to enter the same data twice.
 
That’s why we’re providing our MIS for free to eligible customers.
 
It’s a bold approach that frees up funding, allowing schools to invest where it matters most: their school improvement journey.

Testimonials

What our partners think about us

It's really useful to just be able to click a button and get all of your reports. Whether that's progress or age-related expectations, the Diminishing Differences report is the one I've really liked this year.
Headteacher East Sheen Primary School
I think what we find really useful in Sonar Tracker is the reports and the fact that it can take the data and help us construct our story for each pupil, rather than just having to look at the raw data ourselves.
Assessment Lead Our Lady of Grace Primary School
Staff come prepared with the data, and they can deep dive into which children they are targeting, linked to what they know as classroom teachers and backed up by the data itself.
Headteacher All Saints CE Primary School
