Melbourne, Australia Education and Training Full time

Location: Melbourne | Northern Metropolitan

Job type: Full time / From 20/03/2023

Organisation: Education and Training

**Salary**: Salary not specified

Occupation: Education and Training

Reference: 1331573

**Selection Criteria**:
SC1 Demonstrated capacity to coordinate operations as a Food Technology assistant, adapting to changing conditions as necessary.

SC2 Demonstrated capacity to maintain a clean and safe kitchen environment with regard to OH&S and food handling standards and methodologies.

SC4 Capacity to work cooperatively as a member of a busy team and to communicate with a range of people including teachers, education support, students and suppliers.

SC5 A commitment to professional learning and growth

**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 performed on a regular basis where priorities are clear, procedures are well established, and direction is readily available. Subject to any specific qualification and/or training requirement, an education support class employee employed in this range may be progressively required to undertake coordination, specialised student/teacher support tasks, or technical tasks as experience in the role is gained.

**Responsibilities**:
The Food Technology Assistant supports students and staff by ensuring the efficient operation of the Food Tech & Kitchen work area. Key responsibilities include:

- Co-ordinate, organise and determine work priorities within the work area in relation to preparation of ingredients and equipment, and cleaning of facility
- Preparation of ingredients and specialised equipment for all practical classes as per food orders and the kitchen schedule, including portioning of large batches into individual student portions
- Communication with teaching staff on the requirements of classes
- Preparation of ingredient substitutions for dietary requirements as per individual student requirements and/or teacher instruction
- Preparation of components of practical tasks (eg, pre-cooking an element for student use)
- Preparation of teacher’s demonstration materials and equipment
- Supervision of students during collection of ingredients and equipment and provision of advice on correct technique as necessary
- Actively encourage safe use of the kitchen by students and report behavioural or safety issues to the supervising teacher
- Maintenance of clean and organised food stores and pantry
- Maintenance of OH&S requirements of Kitchen, including correct storage and use of chemicals and Safety Data Sheets
- Calculation of food order requirements base
