What does a School Administrator actually do? 🤔

You might have seen school administrator roles advertised and thought…

👉 What would I actually be doing?
👉 Would I have the skills for it?
👉 Could this be a role that works around family life?

With children now back at school, you might also be starting to think about what comes next for you.

A School Administrator can be involved in so many different aspects of school life and it is a role that is often much broader than people realise.

So, "What does a School Administrator actually do?"

We have put together a new blog post exploring the role, the skills you may already have and what a career working in a school could look like.

If you are wondering whether working in education could be your next step, it is worth a read.

👇 Head over to our website to read the full blog post.

And tell us below - If you are a school administrator did you know just how varied a School Administrator's role would be?

The school bags have been bought. The labels have been sewn in. The first-day photos have been taken.

And now… what?

The first few weeks of school can be a whirlwind.

Checking the bookbag every night.

Making sure you have everything they need for the next day.

Remembering PE kits, reading books, water bottles and all those little things you never knew you needed to remember!

And somewhere amongst all of that, you might be wondering:

👉 What do I do now?

👉 Where do I go from here?

👉 Could I start thinking about work again?

Perhaps you have spent the last few years putting your career on hold while your children were little.

Perhaps you are ready for something that gives you a sense of purpose again, but still works around family life.

Working in a school can offer something many other careers simply cannot:

✔️ Term-time opportunities
✔️ School hours
✔️ A working environment that understands the rhythm of family life

We see so many people take their next step into roles such as:

📘 School Administrator

📊 Data Manager

📝 Exams Officer

And discover a career that works alongside their family life, rather than competing with it.

You do not have to have it all figured out today.

Sometimes the first step is simply finding out what is possible.

Our online courses can help you explore new skills, build your knowledge and take that first step towards your next chapter. The link to our online courses is in the comments...
