“The Mandarin research that mtmconsulting has undertaken for us has been excellent: delivered on time and with attention to detail and our specific needs. All relevant staff here are finding it very useful and we would recommend it to any other schools looking to analyse their catchment area.” – Bristol Grammar School
“We found mtmconsulting extremely helpful and professional throughout the market research exercise. They clearly had a great detail of experience and worked effectively and diplomatically with our current and prospective parents as well as with our feeder schools. The end result was a very thorough and detailed analysis which confirmed many of the hunches we had but also revealed information we were not aware of. The process has enabled us to move forward with our marketing plan with confidence and has given us some quantitative data against which we can measure our progress in the future.” – Sevenoaks School

“Overall, it was brilliant – the SMT were extremely pleased and the Governors were impressed. The data that we have is excellent and I would recommend you to anybody. We have already passed your name on to another school. From the word go, you were very professional about the way you went about things. Your report will influence the whole way we go about things. We are looking to focus our current marketing. We could have gone down completely the wrong route but we have the information that we need now. For example, we have wondered why we got little response to advertising in some areas and now we know why!” – Grace Dieu Manor Preparatory School

We have not been disappointed and the excellent report produced by mtmconsulting has allowed us to develop our marketing strategy with confidence.” - Hazelwood School, Surrey

We are pleased to recommend mtmconsulting for any type of research.” - Ampleforth College
