How SBMs think, work, and live: Results from our survey
School Business Managers have had a difficult 2020, but without their continued efforts to make schools safe and as normal as possible, school simply wouldn't be able to work as intended. We salute the vital work SBMs and that's why we launched the SBM Profile, a survey where we speak to today's SBMs to find out exactly who they are and how they operate.
Thanks to all 70 SBMs who responded to our survey back in October. We covered everything from the beverage your brew and the superpowers you wish you had, to more serious matters like the biggest challenge your profession faces over the coming months.
We've compiled your responses into a handy infographic, so you can get a picture of who your fellow SBMs are today. Don't forget to check us out on Twitter @GLS for loads more content and support for SBMs and other school officials.
