Melbourne, Australia Education Full time

Location: Melbourne | Southern Metropolitan

Job type: Part time / From 01/05/2023 - 20/12/2023

Organisation: Education

**Salary**: Salary not specified

Occupation: Education and Training

Reference: 1340205

**Selection Criteria**:
SC1 Understanding of common approaches, policies, programs and research relating to student wellbeing.

SC2 Experience in the delivery of student and family wellbeing services in a relevant setting and, preferably, experience working with schools in the area of student wellbeing.

SC3 Demonstrated experience in the coordination of services and the provision of information, support and consultation.

SC4 Highly developed communication and interpersonal skills, including the ability to work collaboratively and network with the wide range of people within education and the wider community.

SC5 Demonstrated capacity and experience to work with challenging student and provide counselling to students and parents individually and in group settings.

**Role**:
[Attendance requirement for this position]

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**:

- Provide professional student support services, e.g. therapist and psychological and counselling services.
- Provide strategic advice on specific support services and their impact on students, school curriculum and services.
- Manage the use of and access to school resource and reference material.

**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.

**Location Profile**:
At Dandenong West Primary School we seek to meet the needs of the community we serve. Our view of education is expansive, while student learning is our core business we recognise this does not happen in isolation from families and the wider community. We have high aspirations for our students, as do their families. Our programs are designed to enhance student learning, support families by providing access to services and learning opportunities, and to foster participation within the wider community. Our school vision embodies this view of education:

- “Our vision is to inspire a passion for learning that motivates us to _
- live life with enthusiasm and a positive attitude.”_

To achieve our vision we expect all staff to develop positive relationships with our students, their families and more widely; we understand that life is a process of continuous growth, and growth itself is a process of learning through making meaningful connections. To establish a
