Adviser - School Attendance Policy And Programs
Canberra, Australian Capital Territory, Australia
I worked across numerous initiatives aimed at increasing school attendance rates of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children in remote communities within Australia. My contributions to the work program largely consist of briefing the Minister or executive team of emerging issues or project changes, providing technical support on analytical tasks, and progressing day-to-day project management tasks. A core part of my role is to liaise with communities to obtain, analyse and then translate attendance data into a report provided to the Minister on a monthly basis. Additionally, I am the contract manager for an education project that aims to deliver STEM resources to Indigenous students across a number of remote regions across Australia.
