More About Me

Committed to Excellence

My name is Leanne, and I set up Data: Defined because of my passion for supporting schools to maximise the efficiency of their systems, reduce teacher workload, and ultimately, drive positive student outcomes. I understand the challenges that educational institutions face, and I am committed to making a meaningful difference in this field.

 

A little about me: I am not only an advocate for improving the education sector, but I also have a personal connection to it. As a parent of two small children, I am keenly aware of the importance of a robust and efficient educational system in shaping our future generations. My dedication to this cause extends to my family life, as I am married to a dedicated teacher who is equally passionate about providing quality education. This dynamic has given me a unique perspective on the challenges faced by teachers and schools in their quest for excellence.

 

Furthermore, I have a background as a former Data Manager, Senior Leader & school governor, which has provided me with insights into the inner workings of educational institutions. I have seen firsthand the intricacies of decision-making, resource allocation, and the diverse needs of the school community. Through this experience, I have gained a deep understanding of the opportunities and challenges that schools encounter on a daily basis.

 

I believe that effective collaboration and sharing of knowledge and resources can significantly enhance the educational landscape. I am excited to connect with individuals and organisations who share this vision, and I am eager to work with schools and MATs to this end.

 

I look forward to the possibility of working with you, and I am open to discussing your insights, projects, or any potential areas of collaboration that align with our shared goals. Please feel free to use the contact page on this site or email me directly to discuss any ideas, thoughts, or initiatives.

Data Manager
Based in Schools in London and Nottingham, UK

From July 2009 to March 2021 I worked in several schools honing my schools as a Data Manager and Senior Leader. 

I have worked with all phases from Foundation 2 right through to Post 16. The largest school I worked in was more than 3,000 students and had multiple split sites. 

I have managed multiple MIS Softwares (Arbor, Bromcom, SIMS, Facility CMIS), as well as additional third party software such as SISRA, 4Matrix, ALPS, FFT, Target Tracker, NOVA-T6 and e-Timetabler.

Key Account Manager

At Arbor Education I work with some of our largest MATS and schools to assist them in achieving their priority objectives and ensuring that the software can support them in the best way. 

I highlight system usage, areas of engagement and strategically make recommendations to support their goals. I ensure my schools are getting the best out of the software functionality to reinforce student outcomes and reduce staff workload.
