Catherine Clark
Head of Insight, Data & MIS
I have been part of Great Schools Trust since 2020, working within the Insight, Data and MIS team. I have worked within the education sector for over 10 years. After studying GCSEs and A levels, I completed a degree in Business Management and Information Systems in 2010. I returned to University to study to be a teacher in 2011 and completed my Postgraduate Certificate in Education.
The Data and Insights department analyses data to provide insights to a variety of stakeholders within the Trust and Academies. This can include identifying trends which help inform better outcomes for students and staff. Systems are developed to record information and provide meaningful insight.
As a mother of two children, I’m very passionate about ensuring students get the best outcomes no matter what their starting point in life. By using accurate and meaningful data, we can develop insights which provide better strategies and provisions for both our children and communities.
