Meet Jef Barton, your course trainer

I am a former Data Manager and Timetabler with 14 years’ experience of delivering data management, analysis and timetable construction for a large Secondary School. I managed the implementation of SIMS, developed the use of all areas and was responsible for training the staff.


The expertise I gained in this role led me to pursue my career goal of providing specialised timetable consultancy and SIMS training services to schools.

I’ve always had a passion for accurate data and enabling others to develop to achieve their full potential.
