A Guide to the Boxall Profile® Online for Multi-Academy Trust's (MATs) and MAT Leaders
A Guide to the Boxall Profile® Online
In educational settings across the world, the Boxall Profile® Online’s ability to generate unique learning plans tailored to each child’s specific social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs is helping educational professionals to support and promote the emotional wellbeing of children and young people. The Boxall Profile® Online’s unique features are the ideal support to effectively tackle individual challenges as well as evidence levels of need across groups.
The Boxall Profile® was developed over fifty years ago by the educational psychologist Marjorie Boxall. Since then, the assessment has gained a long-lasting evidence-based reputation. The ongoing development of the Boxall Profile® Online is our charity’s commitment to support professionals in understanding underlying needs of children and young people and to improve access to education for all.

Case studies from the Inclusive Multi Academy Trust
Using the Boxall Profile® to improve attendance in a MAT
Child A is in Reception, an only child whose mother is in the UK on a work visa, with no recourse to public funds and a history of domestic abuse. Child A’s attendance was erratic, with many single days off. Analysis from the Boxall Profile® highlighted low scores in A-J.
Goal: Improve Child A’s attendance month on month during the 2023/24 academic year using a relational approach supported by the Boxall Profile®.
Impact: Attendance improved from 73% in October 2023 to 86% in March 2024. Child A is now in school more regularly, accessing appropriate interventions in class, and is making progress as demonstrated by the Boxall Profile®.
Download our leaflet for a testimonial from the Inclusive Multi Academy Trust on the impact of nurture, including case-studies that demonstrate a marked improvement in attendance for some of the most challenging of pupils.
