Our recent joint webinar with MTM Consulting and Veracross provided valuable insights into the power of pupil retention and its impact on school success. We were delighted to be joined by Ashley Kirk from Veracross and Nija Majmudar Meyer, Vice President for Enrollment Management at Woodward Academy .

Key Takeaways:

🔹 Strategic insights into why retention is more cost-effective than recruitment.
🔹 Data-driven approaches to optimise retention efforts and strengthen alumni networks.
🔹 Real-world lessons from global schools on fostering belonging and community.

Attendees gained practical strategies to:
✅ Maximise student retention and engagement.
✅ Enhance marketing ROI by balancing recruitment and retention.
✅ Build lasting alumni connections for future recruitment, mentoring, and development.

A special thank you to Nija and Veracross for sharing their expertise!
