School Coordinator

School Coordinator

Gifted and Talented Online WA

The GT Online program is reliant on having a school-based liaison person to assist

and support students in accessing the online programs at the school level.

The School Coordinator’s responsibilities are:

Timetables

  • Provide school timetables to the GT Online Program Coordinator to assist in timetabling of online classes.
  • Liaise with the GT Online Program Coordinator to select most suitable lesson times.
  • Meet with students to help them coordinate a school + online timetable.
  • Ensure school-based teachers are aware of the reason for student’s early

departure/late arrival to lessons. Students may need assistance initiating this conversation with their teachers.

Lesson Organisation

Non-contact lesson time: students require a quiet place with access to a computer and should not be expected to work in a classroom where lessons are being conducted.

  • Organise an appropriate quiet location within the school where students can work on a networked computer for ‘live’ lessons and independent study time.
  • Ensure students have access to and use a webcam. Students need to provide their own headset with inbuilt microphone.
  • Notify GT Online Coordinator of major school events that will impact student lesson attendance.

Pastoral Care

  • Check in with the GT Online students, reassuring them that they have a contact person in the school and someone to ask for help.
  • Provide support to students new to GT Online, listening to their concerns and partnering with older GT Online students as mentors if possible.
  • Follow up on ongoing unexplained absences from GT Online classes if required.

Coursework

  • Distribute GT Online resources to students and facilitate their return as required.
  • Assist students to scan/email completed work to their online teacher.
  • Coordinate with students a suitable day and location for them to complete topic tests sent by the online teachers. These tests are to be administered under normal test conditions.
  • When required, scan and return completed topic tests to online teachers as soon as possible.
