Benefit from additional insight with our new customised benchmark reports
All institutions that participate in Advance HE student surveys (UKES, PTES and PRES) are provided with a standard institutional benchmarking report as well as access to key results via an interactive reporting portal.
In response to requests from institutions participating in our surveys, we have developed a range of customised report options that can be purchased in addition to the standard benchmarking report. This means we can help to make the data and analysis work even harder for you. These additional customised benchmarking reports are available for each survey and allow you to select options to meet your specific needs.

Custom Benchmark Report
Add this report to benchmark your scores against a bespoke set of institutions
Custom benchmark reports provide the opportunity to benchmark your scores against a bespoke set of institutions. The process works by asking you to select a minimum of three or more institutions (not including your own institution) to compare against as a combined group. Custom benchmark reports include all of the content of standard benchmarking reports but in addition feature:
- Benchmarking to a custom benchmarking group or a weighted sector benchmark
- Subject and demographic tables including quartile position
- Graphical dashboard for each benchmark comparison
- Statistical analysis of differences
Weighted Benchmark Report
Add this report for a weighted benchmark
The weighted benchmark report is based around a sector score weighted to match the student profile at your institution, which is then compared to your own score. The factors included vary by survey, but typically include subject, gender, mode of teaching and domicile. This benchmark gives greater confidence that like is being compared with like.The analysis is broken down by subject and selected demographic variables. Weighted benchmark reports include all of the content of standard benchmarking reports but in addition feature:
- Subject and demographic breakdowns
- Summary scores and quartile position
- Graphical dashboard for each benchmark comparison
- Statistical analysis of differences
- Data tables with detailed results
Campus Report
Add this report for an overseas or separate UK campus
This option provides the opportunity to receive a detailed report featuring the results from an overseas campus or separate UK campus (the survey must run through BOS using a standard, but separate, survey template). The format will be similar to the standard reports, and comparisons will be to UK benchmarking groups. Please note that results from students studying at a campus outside the UK do not count towards the UK results for the institution, or the UK national results.
Custom Split Report
Add this report for a custom split
We can create separate benchmarking reports for particular student categories for your institution, for example distance learner and face-to-face, or first year and second year. Each report benchmarks each of the categories against similar students across the sector. Each set of split reports must be based on categories of a single question in the survey, or derived from a single question in the survey.
