German term

übertragene Aufgaben

German to English Bus/Financial Management school management
I'm still working on the list of duties for the General Manager of a school. This is a section heading:

Aufgaben des Geschäftsführers im Rahmen der vom Schulleiter übertragenen Aufgaben der Schulverwaltung gemäß Schulleiterdienstvertrag

My attempt so far:
Duties of the General Manager concerning the duties assigned from the School Administration by the School Directors according to the School Director Employment Contract.

Did I understand correctly who is assigning what?
Proposed translations (English)
5 +2 assigned tasks
4 My understanding is this
3 -1 transferred duties / delegated / passed on by

Instead of "tasks", "duties" will work also.
