A note on these figures
Every number here is the figure Edves publishes across all of its regional sites. Outcome claims such as attainment uplift, absenteeism reduction and CPD engagement are drawn from pilot deployments and state programmes rather than the full customer base, and are labelled as such where they appear. If you are citing Edves in research, journalism or a procurement document, this page is the source of record. Corrections and verification requests: contact us.
