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 across Ireland and the UK.
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 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 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’. It also bases academic success on how a student performs vs others, when the real measure of success is how well they perform vs their own unique potential.
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 shining a light on every student and providing schools with a better means of analysing individual performance.
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.
