New: Back to school checklist for SBMs
With the arrival of staff and students back into school imminent, it is vital for SBMs to make last-minute preparations to ensure the school is stocked with necessary supplies. September can be extremely hectic for SBMs as the school fills up with students and all staff while setting up resources, finances and supplies for the new school year. It is essential to finish all preparations before others arrive and stay on top of key tasks to start the year in the right direction.
To help you complete vital tasks to be organised and prepared for the arrival of students and staff, we have created a back-to-school checklist for SBMs. You can download our checklist and mark off tasks to do as you go along. This way you can split tasks into small groups and prioritise them in a way that suits your needs.

Be sure to remember
There are many different items and tasks that SBMs must do for the back-to-school period that can be added to our checklist if needed, from packing healthy lunches to helping you take a break to prioritising important paperwork/files that need attention.
A vital area that can often be overlooked is powering electrical accessories for the whole school. There are many appliances from remotes to learning resources that require batteries to power them. Batteries can be forgotten when purchasing essential supplies for your school due to the multitude of tasks and items to buy.
Check your school’s electrical accessories to see what takes batteries and figure out which ones you need to stock up on. Take note of these and purchase plenty to have in stock for when they run out.
Energizer batteries are perfect for all uses in schools as they are long-lasting and leak-free ensuring that your appliances work for longer periods of time. Plus, all batteries come in useful bulk packs to ensure your school has plenty spare just in case.
