Our school is planning to share a primary welfare officer with a neighbouring school (cluster model). What considerations are important in the planning stage?
When a primary welfare officer works across two or more schools, it is important to develop a shared vision about focus and an implementation model that is appropriate for both/all schools. A mechanism that manages the initiative and provides support for the primary welfare officer, such as a Committee of Management, is also an important consideration.
