Responsibilities

All our students come from difficult backgrounds - economically and socially. The Social Worker will be responsible for ensuring that our students get the maximum support possible from all stakeholders outside of the school, to enable them to succeed in school and their career. These stakeholders could be parents, community members, medical professionals, government officials, and so on. The Social Worker will be especially responsible for the most struggling students - who will not succeed in school without full involvement of the stakeholders mentioned earlier.

  • Form School Management Committee and facilitate their regular meetings and projects
    Ensure a section of parents are volunteering to help with school operations

lll - Community Development:

  • Identify and procure resources from the community which will enhance the education experience for our students (eg: after-school study space, ground, library, etc)
  • Be the bridge between the community and the school
  • Establish and enhance school relations with the corporators and local influencers
