RM extends partnership with ISEB (Independent Schools Examinations Board) to power next-generation assessment delivery

Written by Admin | Jan 29, 2026 9:09:00 AM
RM has signed a contract with ISEB, extending their partnership to 2029 as ISEB continues to evolve.

The agreement supports ISEB’s delivery of its Common Entrance (CE) and Common Academic Scholarship Exams (CASE) using RM’s authoring and assessment platform.

ISEB’s assessments span a range of delivery models, including tests taken on a single day or across multiple sittings, as well as subjects with specialist requirements such as Latin and Greek. RM’s assessment platform provides the workflow, task management and item-level control needed to support this diversity and delivery at scale.

As part of the partnership, RM is helping ISEB to modernise its assessment delivery while preserving established formats valued by schools. 

The partnership also supports ISEB’s longer-term ambition to expand its assessment capabilities. ISEB used RM’s adaptive comparative judgement module, RM Compare, to shortlist entries for its 2025 Time to Write competition and to moderate their Independent Project Qualification, iPQ, demonstrating a shared commitment to innovation in assessment.
