Location: Melbourne | Western Metropolitan

Job type: Part time / From 28/01/2025

Occupation: Education and Training

Reference: 1446435

**Selection Criteria**:
1. Demonstrated relevant experience/knowledge of how to support students with disabilities and additional needs to a high level.

**Role**:
The Learning Support Officer is an integral member of a classroom and is primarily responsible for providing physical, emotional, and educational support to students with social, emotional and/or learning difficulties.

On occasion the learning support officer will also contribute and provide support to the Wellbeing team.

8.30pm to 3.10pm
- 5 days a week

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 Learning Support Officer supports classroom teachers with tasks essential to support students by Assisting student learning and participation in the College by:

- Identifying a student¿s needs, skills and difficulty as they arise and working under the Disability and Inclusion Leader¿s direction to respond to these concerns.
- Understanding a student¿s identified learning difficulties and offering assistance/support in the classroom.
- Working with the student¿s teacher by actively participating in activities, assisting, intervening, and encouraging students and, where appropriate, providing 1:1 instructive support.
- Liaising with other Inclusive Learning and teaching staff to maintain a comprehensive support program, tracking stude
