Foundations can guarantee their inclusion in the Foundation Practice Rating (FPR) sample with a small fee.
Several trusts have shown an interest in guaranteed subsequent inclusions to chart progress, including the ones above who opted in this year.

A way of ensuring the sample continues to be representative has been developed; more detail is available on request.
We select the sample by September in any given year. If you would like to opt in please get in touch. We would need to have your commitment by 1 October.
Whatever your foundation size, if you want to take part and track your progress towards better diversity, accountability and transparency practices using the Foundation Practice Rating criteria this year, please complete the expression of interest form to the left.
We have evaluated the process and determined that the cost of research and analysis for each foundation is set at £1,200 (incl. VAT). Foundations who wish to participate can do so by covering this fee.
Please note, foundations that ‘opt in’ for the assessment acknowledge that their results will be made public in our report as part of our randomised sample.
