Welcome to another episode of 'Education: Joining the Dots', hosted by Ryan Hughes, Education Advisor. Our special guest for this episode is Becky St. John, a school assessment and performance data specialist who is passionate about helping schools and Multi-Academy Trusts use data effectively to improve outcomes.
