Unlocking the Unique Potential of Every Student

Athena Analytics is an award-winning EdTech company that provides a range of academic tracking solutions to secondary schools in Ireland.

The Athena Tracker, uses machine learning to identify a student’s baseline potential for each subject, based on their own unique capabilities. The Athena FitnessMark is an intelligent fitness tracking system built specifically for students. Athena Reports provides schools with in-depth reports of their Junior and Leaving Certificate results.

Our Story

Athena Analytics was founded in Co. Kerry by data scientist, Emily Brick. Emily was inspired to set up Athena Analytics after spending time working within Australia’s Department of Education.

While there, she noticed that schools were analysing exam results to help their students better themselves and reach their full potential. This is something that was not being done in secondary schools in Ireland, who were missing out as a result.

The idea for Athena Analytics was born.

“Our subject teachers, guidance teachers and senior management team have found Athena’s evaluation and reporting concise and insightful, their analysis has informed many aspects of school planning and curriculum development.”

Our Mission

Each student’s journey is unique and success is different for everyone. But traditional academic tracking tools only focus on the extremes; celebrating those at the top and spotting those at the bottom. This system is flawed as it fails to support a whole cohort of students in ‘the forgotten middle’. 

Athena’s mission is to unlock the unique potential of every student and ensure that no student gets missed within a busy school system. We do this by providing schools with academic monitoring software that focuses primarily on student potential and shining a light on every student.

Our People

When your goal is to fundamentally change the way that schools nurture their students, you need to surround yourself with some amazing people. We have a dedicated, skilled and ambitious team of account managers, data scientists, developers, marketing executives and quality assurance engineers.

We also lean on the support and guidance of an experienced advisory board consisting of some of the most well-known names in education.
