Take time to individually meet, as early in each school year as possible, those you directly work with. This will help pave the way for a positive working relationship. Meet with your school principal and arrange to be introduced to the rest of the school staff. Ensure that all of these people know who you are, what you do and that they are aware of your important role as a member of the school staff. Regardless of the method you use, it will be worth your while and will benefit the students you work with to make the reciprocal understanding present throughout your school.
School districts are responsible for increasing the efficiency of delivering educational services.
As an Aboriginal Support Worker you should understand your district's policy in Aboriginal education and how to relate to people from the district office. When district personnel visit your school, speak to them about your programs and your students' needs. It will be helpful if you have written descriptions of your programs. If everyone is moving forward together, then the success takes care of itself. Please fill in your district staff information.
