The Quest for Advanced Analytics
When Samantha, Trust Data Manager at Greenwood Academies Trust, first joined the Trust, navigating through the labyrinth of data was an uphill task. Different schools in the Trust were using disparate systems. Finally, after implementing Juniper Education’s Sisra Analytics across the board, Samantha had the powerful MAT Dashboard she had been wishing for, and it was “definitely worth the wait.”
Immediate Benefits: Click-of-a-Button Analytics
For Samantha, the immediate benefit of the Sisra Analytics MAT Dashboard is its ability to deliver a statistical overview at the click of a button. “It’s invaluable in allowing us to see things clearly and quickly,” she says. It has been especially crucial for the Trust’s leaders, who can access essential data without requesting cumbersome reports, appreciating the visual representations over “comprehensive tables of numbers.”
The Speed Factor: Real-Time Data for Real-Time Decisions
On results day, the MAT Dashboard shined its brightest. “Leaders could sit with the dashboard and see real-time updates, freeing me to support others who needed immediate help,” explains Samantha. “It was our smoothest results day ever. All results were in by 10 AM.”
Collaboration and Strategy
The MAT Dashboard has also proven itself to be a powerful tool for fostering collaboration among the Trust’s schools. In their “Raising Achievement Board” meetings, Samantha uses the dashboard to present and strategise, though she mentions the challenge of different schools using the system differently due to the autonomy allowed within the Trust.
Top-Notch Support
When asked about the support and consultancy team at Juniper, Samantha rated them “11 out of 10.” She notes, “Everyone on support has that product knowledge and is fully trained. I’ve never had any issues whatsoever.”
Looking Ahead
While Samantha hopes to see the MAT Dashboard evolve into an all-encompassing super dashboard that includes various types of data, she’s realistic but optimistic about what the platform has achieved relatively quickly. She sees it as a stepping stone to an even more integrated and efficient future for data management across Greenwood Academies Trust.
