What you will do

· Support the implementation, development and consistent use of Arbor MIS across the Trust.

· Maintain data standards and carry out quality checks across pupil, staff, attendance, behaviour and assessment information.

· Prepare, maintain and check datasets used in Power BI dashboards and Trust reporting.

· Coordinate assessment collections and support the preparation and validation of statutory returns.

· Produce routine reports, summaries, guidance and training materials for schools and Trust leaders.

· Provide responsive first-line support and maintain clear records, action logs and project trackers.
