Location: Melbourne

Job type: Full time / From 16/09/2024 - 26/01/2026

Organisation: Schools (Government)

**Salary**: Salary not specified

Occupation: Teacher

Reference: 1433726

**Location Profile**:
Port Phillip Specialist School is a dual-mode specialist school catering to a diverse range of students aged 2.8 to 18 years with a diagnosed intellectual disability. Port Phillip Specialist School believes that all students will develop personal and social capabilities, communication and independence to the best of their abilities. Port Phillip Specialist School is committed to the values of professional collaboration, trust, compassion and respect whilst embracing and celebrating diversity. The school environment is creative, accepting, flexible and positive.

Port Phillip Specialist School utilises the Visual and Performing Arts to engage students to work towards achieving the Victorian Curriculum outcomes in English, Mathematics, Personal and Social Capabilities, Health and Physical Education and Science. Students are further supported through a Guaranteed and Viable Curriculum in English and Mathematics and a School-Wide Positive Behaviour Framework.

Port Phillip Specialist School¿s Integrated Services Model ensures the focus is to optimise student well-being outcomes and promote happy, healthy students. Our school is a professional learning community where collaboration and collective responsibility for improving student learning and well-being outcomes provide every student with a targeted teaching and learning program.

Port Phillip is committed to building and fostering positive and mutually beneficial relationships within the school and the wider community to support students within an inclusive environment.

**Selection Criteria**:
**SC1** Demonstrated capacity to perform duties consistent with established guidelines and frameworks, including coordinating and supporting others in respect to specific work functions relevant to the role.

**SC2** Demonstrated capacity to work and collaborate with others in a team environment.

**SC3** Demonstrated capacity to communicate effectively in a team environment, including high level oral and written communication skills.

**SC4** Possess the technical knowledge and expertise relevant to the position.

**SC5** Demonstrated capacity to provide advice and support to management and other school staff in respect to the work area.

**SC6** A commitment to professional learning and growth for both self and others.

**Role**:
An education support class position at this range will perform tasks that are carried out in accordance with guidelines, accepted practice, and school policy under supervision and direction. This may include coordination of other education support class staff within the work area or educational program.

An education support class position supports the educational services being provided to students but must not include duties of a teacher as defined in clause 2.6.1 of the _Education and Training Reform Act 2006 (Vic)_ or its successor. Supervision of students can be required individually or in groups up to 4 in controlled circumstances and where the responsibility for students remains clearly with a teacher.

Certification and/or qualifications of up to three years can be required at this level (noting that Registered Nurse is not included at this level, the first level for which is Level 1 range 3).

A role at this range may include:

- Specific support tasks to achieve outcomes. Typically, this will involve accountability for a single function, (e.g. ensuring data is properly maintained) or the co-ordination of a work area under the direction of the principal or a manager.
- Assisting teachers, within an educational program, by undertaking specific support tasks or the coordination of the support function.
- Supervised health and wellbeing support tasks, medical intervention support tasks, or other specialised student/teacher support roles (e.g. enrolled nurses performing the role as described in schedule 3). These roles require specific qualifications and/or training, including roles where further training must be undertaken from time to time. The role is for a specific purpose, for which there will be direct accountability as opposed to support roles that are carried out by a range of staff performing routine tasks under direction.
- Technical tasks that require a sound knowledge of basic technical and/or scientific principles that are used to develop and adapt work methods and make judgements where there are clear guidelines and limited options. Routine technical support in libraries, science, and information technology would be typical examples.

An education support class position at this range commencing at the base will initially be limited to undertaking routine tasks that are carried out under close supervision and direction. Work that carries some degree of independence will generally involve a limited number of tasks perfor
