Ensuring valid inferences: approaches to improving data quality
This session explores the hows and whys of high-quality data for effective predictive and prescriptive analytics in school trusts. We’ll identify which datasets require the most rigorous quality standards and discuss practical steps to improve data accuracy and reliability across trust systems.
