The work

Tasks this hire takes

A virtual assistant for education handles enrolments, the timetable and parent admin.

The educator still teaches and assesses.

Two jobs shape a normal week for education: Process enrolment forms against the checklist, and update the timetable after the coordinator changes it. Firms hire for that rhythm, not for an empty inbox.

  • Process enrolment forms against the checklist

  • Update the timetable after the coordinator changes it

  • Send parent reminders the school approved

  • Chase missing consent forms

  • File student admin without putting marks in the inbox

Process enrolment forms against the checklist. For education, that work sits beside The student system you already use. The principal still makes the call above it.

Update the timetable after the coordinator changes it. Ask each finalist for education when they last did this, and whether they did it in The student system you already use.

The brief for education should treat this as a standing job: send parent reminders the school approved. The student system you already use is where the office checks it.

Chase missing consent forms. If the hire has not used The student system you already use, the first month for education includes learning it, and the principal still reviews the output.

File student admin without putting marks in the inbox. For education, write down what done looks like, and who is told when it is finished.
