in a small infant school which doesn't have an SBM ATM.
As part of the interview, I am required to do a 5 minute presentation "How will you as School Business Manager impact on the business function and the quality of teaching in the school?"
IME, there are vast differences in what SMBs actually do. In some schools they are effectively HT's PA, dealing with the finance and other paperwork but only acting on HT's instructions, in others they are running all aspects of Finance, HR, Risk and Office Services (most usually somewhere in between).
So, I was thinking of starting by setting out how I see the role and then adding specific things I can bring to it. Does that sound OK? Do I need to include specific actions - difficult when I don't know what needs doing yet? Or best to focus on how my strengths fit with the role?
Would you expect me to do something on powerpoint?
