Database Administration Setting up all data structures which are needed for the school to operate effectively. Provides technical support and guidance on core data systems to Junior School colleagues and other Administration colleagues in the wider College. Examples of current tasks which the job holder is responsible for include: Creation of School Year, Timetables and Registers Before the start of the academic year, populate the Junior School system with the session dates and create the periods for the day which allows the creation of timetables and registers. Crucial this is accurate and timely as once committed it cannot be altered and the entire JS operation depends on this being correct. Curriculum Support confirms accuracy. Before the start of the academic year, transfer all the children from the closed year to the new year, changing class, removing leavers, adding new children, additional/new classes where relevant, in all external platforms (e.g. Mathletics, Accelerated Reader, Spellzone, Maths Investigations, Seesaw, Education City). Maintain this data across the year. Once the system is set up for the new academic year, and prior to session starting, receive information about timetables from Deputy Head(s) LP/UP, from PE, Drama, Art, Music and from this generate subject sets Create subject sets (c500) for each class, English, Numeracy, Literacy, Spanish, Art, Music, Drama etc attaching class, teacher, pupils, location, times and days which ultimately creates the timetable which teachers use. Ongoing maintenance of this data as required across the year. Data Maintenance Ensures the school management information systems are kept up to date with pupil information, e.g. change of circumstances, medical information, (Dashboards, Mathletics, SpellZone). Entries must be accurate and timely. Testing At key tracking points across the year (termly) work closely with Deputy Head (LP) to organise the testing programme. Agree dates of testing, share on central calendar with staff, decide whether enough test papers are in stock, maintain stock control, order papers where needed, consider supplier lead times, prepopulate external sites with data of children, dob, gender, names, class. Without this info the child cannot take an online test and for paper tests, the results could not be recorded by the testing company to the right child. Once results are available generate a csv file and import into a markbook. Create markbook tasks. Each test has a name, therefore getting the naming convention accurate is essential, as this is pulled off onto the dashboard. Allocate teacher, children being reported, additional markers. Assist teachers with entering scores/grades, as required and provide technical support/guidance. Report Production Ad hoc, creation of reports from the management information systems, e.g. running pre-designed ODBC reports, creating new (if basic) or seeking help from Senior School Deputy as required.

Once a teacher has completed the template, the job holder reformats through a merge process to create a pre-designed PDF document for sharing with parents by the Communications Team. Any changes that are requested by parents are made to the final report. Once finalised, individually assign a pupil record.
