Meet the Staff: Office Administration
Laverne Lawrence
Personal Assistant to the Chief Evaluator: Schools Evaluation Authority
I started my career in the Western Cape Education Department in 2008 as a Human Resource Clerk. I was appointed as the Personal Assistant to the Director: Quality Assurance in 2012. The Directorate was responsible for conducting Whole School Evaluation in the Province. I was responsible for providing administrative and secretarial support to the director.
I was seconded to the Schools Evaluation Authority (SEA) in 2020, as the Personal Assistant to the Chief Evaluator. The SEA is an independent entity and is the first of its kind in South Africa. My roles and responsibilities involve rendering an executive administrative service, as well as to provide support, to the Chief Evaluator.
