Today was Census Day in school. It is similar to the end of September in Irish schools when we have a month to submit statistics to DES on which are based the grants issued before the end of the school year and the employment of teachers for the following year. It is a bit of a saga at home filling in the forms and cross checking everything.
Here, similar detail is needed but because all the systems are computerised and updated as they happen, it was just a question of updating what changes occurred in the last week (eg a pupil leaving) a quick cross-check on everything and click a button. The Dept already had the information as the details are live on their website. The school business manager was a little busier during the week and today we cross checked everything in 30 minutes. By the end of the day all Australian schools had submitted their statistics. They will be contacted in the next week if there are any queries or errors. Oh joy!
