Abstract

The paper delves into the transformative impact of data-driven decision making within educational institutions. It highlights the integration of advanced analytical tools and techniques to harness vast amounts of data for strategic planning and policy development. The study examines how data-driven approaches have shifted the traditional methods of educational decision-making, emphasizing the importance of real-time data analysis for improved student outcomes. This paper further discusses the challenges faced by educational institutions in adopting data-driven practices, including the need for data literacy among educational leaders and the ethical considerations surrounding data privacy. Through a comprehensive analysis of case studies and empirical research, the paper concludes that data-driven decision making is a powerful tool for enhancing educational quality and fostering a more inclusive learning environment.
