Montreal, Quebec – May 2025Explorance, a global leader in feedback analytics, is pleased to announce a new partnership with Milton Academy. The prestigious independent school has selected Explorance Blue to modernize its upper-school course evaluation process, bringing greater structure, governance, and analytical depth to its feedback practices.

As part of its commitment to continuous improvement and data-informed decision-making, Milton Academy sought a solution that could adapt the reporting rigor and operational consistency of higher education course evaluations to a secondary-school environment — while preserving student privacy, teacher trust, and administrative simplicity.

The school was looking for a more strategically governed approach to feedback collection, with the flexibility to manage evaluation schedules, reporting access, participation thresholds, exports, and evolving evaluation windows. Milton also wanted the ability to conduct longitudinal analysis and generate more meaningful reporting over time, enabling feedback data to better support institutional reflection and improvement.

After evaluating its options, Milton selected Explorance because of Blue’s alignment with the school’s vision for a modern and scalable feedback program. Unlike traditional survey tools, Blue provides a structured framework for managing course evaluations, supporting transparent reporting, longitudinal insight, and actionable decision-making. Explorance’s extensive experience helping higher education institutions automate and enhance evaluation processes further reinforced its fit as a trusted strategic partner.

Blue provides a course evaluation platform capable of supporting structured feedback, delivering powerful and transparent reporting, and integrating seamlessly with Milton's existing technology ecosystem — including Veracross, Schoology, and Google Apps for Education with SSO. Together, these capabilities create a unified, scalable feedback program that strengthens teaching effectiveness and supports meaningful continuous improvement across the school.
