Educational innovation is exploding across the continent and around the globe. Academically rigorous schools like BASIS Independent Schools, deeper learning schools like San Diego’s High Tech High, personalized learning institutions such as San Francisco’s AltSchool, and online schools like Stanford Online High School are reaching today’s independent school families offering cheaper, often more innovative educational alternatives. This presentation will provide an overview of today’s competitive landscape and will also examine the enrolment process from the perspective of applicants and parents. Understanding our applicants’ (customers’) experience will enhance our ability to provide relevant information, hopefully increase enrolment, and create life-long customers for our schools.
