Role workflow · Single shift · auto-expiring access

Casual Educator

Arrives, finds the room, supports the day. Access is time-bound to the shift — when the shift ends, scope expires automatically.

Design principleJust-in-time access. Just-enough information.
On sign-in

What appears first.

The opening surface is shaped to what this role actually does — never a feed of everything happening in the centre.

Opening view
  • 01
    Today's room only
    The room you're rostered to, for the hours you're rostered. Nothing else.
  • 02
    Key children notes
    Allergies, medical, settling notes. Curated for a relief educator, not a permanent profile.
  • 03
    Shift briefing
    A single screen — room rhythm, who's in, who to ask, sign-out time.
  • 04
    Sign-out checklist
    What must be complete before you leave the floor.

Operational scope

What this role owns. What it doesn't.

Action priorities
  • 01Floor presence first.
  • 02Ask, don't guess — Room Leader is one tap away.
  • 03Capture only what is asked of you.
  • 04Sign out cleanly. The system closes the rest.
Responsibilities
  • Floor coverage in assigned room
  • Allergy & medical awareness
  • Limited capture as directed
  • Sign-in and sign-out completeness
Intentionally hidden

Privacy-first scope. Information removed from this role to reduce cognitive load and protect children & families.

  • Long-term child records & learning cycles
  • Family details beyond what's needed for the day
  • Other rooms
  • Anything outside the shift window
  • All historical incidents and observations
