Melbourne, Australia Education and Training Full time

Location: Melbourne | Eastern Metropolitan

Job type: Part time / From 27/01/2023 - 24/01/2024

Organisation: Education and Training

**Salary**: Salary not specified

Occupation: Education and Training

Reference: 1315388

**Selection Criteria**:
**ESSENTIAL KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE**
- Demonstrated strong interpersonal communication skills.
- Demonstrated experience in working effectively in a team environment.
- Demonstrated capacity to deal with difficult behaviours and respond to the individual needs of students.
- Demonstrated capacity to plan and deliver wellbeing programs.
- Experience and/or qualifications relevant to working with school students in a school setting

**Role**:
Range 3 is distinguished by the introduction of management responsibility and accountability for the delivery of professional support services. The role will usually impact beyond the work area or professional field. It seeks to gain cooperation of other staff members or members of the school community to achieve specific objectives, such as in school administration, operations or educational programs.

Direction on targets and goals is provided but the position will have some degree of latitude in determining how they are achieved. This latitude will generally be limited by standard procedures and school policy. Deviation from standard procedures and school policy will require guidance and direction from senior management.

The provision of business management responsibilities becomes a feature at range 3. Management of staff to achieve the expected outcomes is a key responsibility. Staff management issues will be resolved with mínimal reference to senior management, although guidance will be required in more complex cases. Senior management will be provided with timely reports and advice, although this will generally be confined to matters relating to the immediate work area, service provision or educational program and is unlikely to impact substantially on whole of school operations.

This is the minimum range for positions that carry a mandatory qualification requirement of not less than four years. Professional student support positions become a feature at range 3 (e.g. therapists, psychologists) where standard professional services are delivered. Professional support and guidance will be close at hand and deviation from standard procedures and school policy will require guidance and direction from senior management.

An education support class position supports the educational services being provided to students, but must not include duties of teaching as defined in clause 2.6.1 of the Education and Training Reform Act 2006 (Vic) or its successor. Supervision of students cannot be required except where it is an integral part of the employee¿s position or involves supervision of students individually or in small groups, in controlled circumstances, where the responsibility for students remains clearly with a teacher.

**Responsibilities**:

- Delivers care through various health, counselling, wellbeing and therapeutic services to a school(s)
- Assesses student needs and delivers a range of services within generally defined parameters
- Provides standard professional services independently within defined organisational parameters with professional support and guidance that is close at hand.
- Provide standard clinical professional services to students within the parameters of school policy and guidelines and the standards set by the relevant registration body
- Provide professional reports requiring in-depth factual analysis, including assessments and recommendations for consideration by others
- Retains accountability for individual practice
- Contributes to policy development within the school
- Contributes to and/or conducts training and instruction to school colleagues within the professional field and individual scope of the practice
- Explain professional concepts and approaches to students, stakeholders, colleagues and staff
- Facilitate individual or group programs for students

**Who May Apply**:
Individuals with the aptitude, experience and/or qualifications to fulfill the specific requirements of the position.

**EEO AND OHS Commitment**:
**Child Safe Standards**:
**DET Values**:
**Conditions of Employment**:

- All staff employed by the Department and schools have access to a broad range of employment conditions and working arrangements.
