Communications Manager

 

·        The schedule assumes first contact with Year 6 parents (Open Day / Open Evening / Open Morning / Feeder School Meeting) in week 3 of the Autumn term. If this is planned to be earlier or later, the schedule should be adjusted accordingly.

·        The KS3 Coordinator and the member of SLT designated to oversee this project may be the same person, in which case the Project Owner and Project Manager roles can be combined.
