Westcountry Schools Trust
“Since introducing Scriba to support minute-taking across our Board and committee meetings, we have achieved significant time savings from the very first meeting. The platform is intuitive and includes much of the terminology commonly used in our discussions within its built-in glossary, allowing it to accurately capture acronyms and references (additional custom vocabulary bespoke to your organisation can also be added). Scriba has streamlined our minute-taking processes and freed up valuable staff capacity, while still ensuring we produce detailed and accurate minutes and action points. We would highly recommend Scriba to any school or trust looking to modernise their approach and improve the efficiency of their meetings.”

“Scriba provides high quality minutes. The best feature is the challenge and response section. This draws out the trustees’ questioning and provides clear evidence of good governance in operation. I find the choice of level of detail extremely helpful. It enables me to fine tune the minutes, so they have the necessary detail but do not become over long and remain focused on outcomes. And because I can access the draft minutes straight after the meeting it has greatly improved the speed I can get them checked and shared. The action list is another great benefit. I can easily amend it if needed it and get it sent out to participants straight away. Overall it has significantly improved efficiency and quality in minuting governance meetings in our Trust. It is a game changer!”

“As a three-school Trust, we are committed to maximising resources, efficiency and ensuring value for money. Over the past year, we have prioritised integrating AI to streamline our central services, including the time intensive process of governance administration. Traditionally, producing accurate minutes for an audit trail could take longer than the meetings themselves. After discovering Scriba, we initiated a trial and were impressed by its intuitive setup. The system has significantly reduced our transcription and drafting time. The platform offers excellent tailoring for our specific needs, backed by a support team that is both responsive and highly professional.”

“As a Trust we are currently looking to create a more centralised service delivery offer to schools. Scriba appeared at just the right time and has supported this ambition in relation to our governance support for schools. Scriba has been so straightforward to implement across our large and growing Trust of 46 schools, producing clear and consistent minutes at all governance levels. It has enabled significant capacity, allowing our governance professionals to focus their valuable time elsewhere without compromising on quality. Our Trustees have been more than happy with the quality of the end product and it has enabled us to provide an even more effective service to our Board and its committees. We've been well supported throughout by the team at Scriba and would highly recommend it to other schools and trusts ”

Aspire Academy Trust

Aspire Academy Trust
“As a Trust focused on Operational Excellence, we have been working to cut administrative inefficiencies and give time back to our staff teams. Introducing Scriba has helped facilitate exactly that. Designed around the realities of school and trust governance, Scriba transforms the admin around meetings, including note‑taking for in person and virtual meetings, challenge, response and decision capture, and action follow‑up. What once took hours now takes minutes. Leaders and school admin teams spend less time formatting notes or chasing updates and more time on the work that improves outcomes for pupils and supports our people. Whether it’s a board meeting, a committee session, an employee meeting, or an operations update, we come away with accurate records, tailored to our Trust and actions that don’t get lost. For us, that’s Operational Excellence in practice—less duplication, faster turnarounds, and confidence that every meeting moves work forward. Scriba has become a quiet, dependable accelerator for how we operate within our Trust. ”

“Scriba has been a game-changer for our governance processes. After trialling multiple AI tools to assist with minute-taking, Scriba stood out as the best by far. It has significantly reduced our workload, particularly around post-meeting administration, saving valuable time and improving efficiency. We now use Scriba not only for board and committee meetings but also to support exclusion meetings and internal leadership and executive team sessions. Its reliability and accuracy have made it an indispensable tool for our organisation. ”

“By embedding AI into how we manage meetings across the trust, we’ve dramatically reduced the time spent on routine admin. What once took hours now takes minutes. That shift hasn’t just saved time — it’s created space for senior leaders to focus on long-term priorities, strategic direction, and trust-wide improvement. This is about working smarter, with greater clarity and momentum.”

“Scriba has transformed how we manage meetings. The platform consistently captures actions accurately, which has made a real difference to our governance processes. Post-meeting activities have reduced by around 75%, freeing up valuable time for strategic work rather than administration. The Scriba team has been incredibly supportive throughout, always on hand with answers and guidance whenever we need it. What really stands out is their commitment to working alongside us to continue developing the platform for the future, ensuring it evolves with our needs. Scriba isn’t just a tool, it’s a genuine partner in making our meetings more efficient and impactful.”

Olivia Anthony
Governance Officer

“"Scriba has been a game-changer for our Trust. As a primary MAT governance professional, the pressure to produce accurate, timely minutes across multiple committees is immense. This tool has drastically reduced my production turnaround, freeing up my capacity to focus on the high-level tasks that truly impact our pupils. The system is incredibly intuitive and easy to use, integrating seamlessly into our workflow. Setting up our account was straightforward and comprehensively supported by the team at Scriba. To say it’s been life-changing isn’t an exaggeration—it has restored my work-life balance while elevating the quality of our governance records. I couldn't imagine going back to the old way of working."”
