Melbourne, Australia Schools (Government) Full time

Location: Melbourne | Western Metropolitan

Job type: Full time / From 29/01/2024

Organisation: Schools (Government)

**Salary**: Salary not specified

Occupation: Health and Allied Health

Reference: 1381273

**Selection Criteria**:
1. Demonstrated understanding of common approaches, policies, programs and research relating to student wellbeing.

2. Demonstrated ability 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.

3. Demonstrated ability to provide information, advice and support to teachers and families responsible for the management of students experiencing wellbeing, behavioural and/or learning challenges that are impacting on their learning and life outcomes.

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

5. Highly developed organisational and time management skills

**Role**:
Hours of work are 8:30am to 4:30pm, Monday to Friday during the school term. This includes a 30 minute, unpaid lunchbreak.

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**:
Walcom Ngarrwa Secondary College is committed to providing the necessary support to ensure our students are supported intellectually, emotionally and socially. The Student Wellbeing team plays a significant role in developing and implementing strategies help identify students in need of support and enhance student wellbeing.

The student Counsellor, as a member of the Student Wellbeing Team will be responsible for:

- Providing counselling and guidance to students, who may be self-referred, Wellbeing Leader referred, or parent referred. Cases requiring professional counselling or treatment should be referred to an appropriate agency with prior agreement of the student and parent.
- Providing referrals to external agencies and services as necessary and with the student and parents knowledge and consent.
- Assisting the development, coordination operation and maintenance of the total student support structures, within the context of the Strategic Plan, and in collaboration with the Leading Teacher: Student Services & Wellbeing
