Melbourne, Australia Education Full time

Location: Melbourne | Eastern Metropolitan

Job type: Part time / From 01/05/2023 - 01/05/2024

Organisation: Education

**Salary**: Salary not specified

Occupation: Education and Training

Reference: 1340404

**Selection Criteria**:

- Highly developed counselling skills regarding relationship building with staff, students, parents and the broader school community.
- A proven capacity to work within the school environment and an ability to liaise with outside agencies.
- Demonstrated experience in the coordination of services and the provision of information, support and consultation whilst maintaining a high level of confidentially.
- Highly developed communication and interpersonal skills, including the ability to work collaboratively in a team and wider community.
- Demonstrated ability to work independently with a high level of organisational and time management skills
- Demonstrated capacity to work with the Leadership Team, school staff, Student Support Services and agencies in a range of programs and interventions that foster resilience, improve attendance and respond to social issues

**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**:

- Meet regularly with Principal Class, Educational Support Staff and the Student Wellbeing Team to update and consult on student information and wellbeing programs.
- Provide information to parents on appropriate services and supports and assist families with referrals to external agencies.
- Provide advice to staff on any wellbeing concerns relating to their classroom
- Act as liaison between school and home environment as required.
- Attend Professional Development relevant to enhancing wellbeing support.
- Develop and maintain effective working relationships and networks with local agencies.
- Work directly with students (1:1 and small group settings) on wellbeing issues.
- Liaise with the Student Wellbeing Team as required.
- Communicate effectively with and support the school community in regard to wellbeing.
- Must have a Level II First Aid Certificate and current WWCC
- Other relevant duties as directed by the Principal or her delegate.

**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**:
**Other Information**:

- a resume including relevant experience as well as personal details (name, address and contact numbers, business and home)

Please note that the selection panel may seek additional referees beyond those you name. Consistent with policy, we shall advise you if we will take this action.

**Conditions of Employment**:

- All staff employed by the Department and schools have access to a broad range
