A Business Manager role will usually undertake tasks that impact on the whole school. The role seeks to gain cooperation of other staff members or members of the school community to achieve specific objectives, such as in school administration, finance or human resources.
Direction on targets and goals is provided but the position will have some degree of latitude in determining how they are achieved. This latitude will generally be limited by standard procedures and school policy. Deviation from standard procedures and school policy will require guidance and direction from senior management.
Management of staff to achieve the expected outcomes is a key responsibility. Staff management issues will be resolved with minimal reference to senior management, although guidance will be required in more complex cases. Senior management will be provided with timely reports and advice in matters relating to the school finance, human resources or school administration.

At Auburn South Primary School, we develop a positive sense of identity within a community that encourages individuals to flourish as inquirers, creative thinkers and globally responsible citizens. Whilst Auburn South Primary School is proud of its students¿ high levels of academic achievement, it is our focus on developing the `whole child¿; academic, social, emotional and physical that allows our students to truly thrive. Students are encouraged to be creative, inquisitive and committed to achieving their personal and academic goals. They are empowered to make choices that impact learning and relationships in a positive way.
As an authorised International Baccalaureate Primary Years Program (IB PYP) school we ensure that all students can identify their strengths, experience personal and academic growth, be challenged in their learning, and reach their potential. This commitment to the philosophy of the IB PYP also ensures that our students develop the skills, knowledge and attributes required to become an internationally minded citizen. Innovative programs like the Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden program support this philosophy and build upon our already high levels of student engagement and connectedness to school.
The focus of our current Strategic Plan plan is to build on existing high levels of student achievement by further improving student growth and engagement outcomes in literacy numeracy through a concept driven, inquiry pedagogy. With a strong overall focus on `whole school¿ wellbeing, the school has continued to develop and implement its Visible Wellbeing approach to improving student wellbeing and academic performance. The school has successfully implemented a Professional Learning Communities approach to further whole-community engagement in deep-learning within transdisciplinary units of inquiry and across the disciplines.
