how to say ´auxiliar de acção educativa´ or ´funcionário´
|
Hello everyone!
I�ve got a doubt. Could anyone please tell me how you say � auxiliar de ac��o educativa� or �funcion�rio� (school) in English? �Auxiliar de ac��o educativa� is a person who cleans classrooms, and looks after the school buildings. He/ she is not a teacher but acommon employee.
thanks

Yes... Janitor is correct. I also use this word, which I learnt when I was in London. |

I worked in the USA and I think the word custodian is also appropriate for "funcion�rio", especially those who have other tasks rather as cleaning. (these are the above mentioned janitors)
It seems you got here a good list even for other teachers - custodian, caretaker and janitor Cool!! |
