Admission Process & Client Conversion:

  • Expertly guide prospective parents through the entire admission journey, from initial inquiry to successful enrollment.
  • Capture and meticulously record prospective client data (Name, WhatsApp Number) in the DTA software.
  • Proactively follow up with prospective clients, sending pre-defined messages (e.g., initial inquiry response, promoting school platforms, after online form submission, interview/test scheduling) and tracking progress in the DTA software.

  • Maintain confidentiality of all student, parent, and staff information, releasing it only with explicit approval from the Administrator/Head of School.

Administrative Support & Record Keeping:

  • Log all complaints received (via text, WhatsApp, call, or in-person) into the DTA software, ensuring accurate details are captured and forwarded to concerned persons for resolution.
  • Follow up on complaints to ensure parents/complainants receive timely feedback and report any delays to the Head of Admin.

  • Ensure no staff member exits the school premises without a valid gate pass.
  • Uphold the non-discrimination principle, treating every person with equal respect and courtesy.
  • Ensure the front desk area remains a highly confidential space, with only authorized personnel covering it during absences (e.g., lunch breaks, requiring notification to Head of Admin).
