Melbourne, Australia Education and Training Full time

Location: Melbourne | Western Metropolitan

Job type: Full time / From 07/03/2023

Organisation: Education and Training

**Salary**: Salary not specified

Occupation: Education and Training

Reference: 1324129

**Selection Criteria**:
KSC1 - Well-developed 1-1 counselling/therapeutic skills when working with primary-secondary age students and experience in case management.

KSC2 - Demonstrated awareness and understanding of the issues encountered by young people and the ability to work alongside and support those who are experiencing barriers to education, training and employment.

KSC3 - Demonstrated ability to provide information, advice and support to staff, families and external professionals who are supporting/working with students experiencing difficulties with their social and emotional wellbeing.

KSC4 - Demonstrated ability to understand, empathise with and support students in a variety of challenging personal situations, through a good understanding of trauma and child and adolescent development.

KSC5 - Highly developed communication and interpersonal skills, with the proven ability to work collaboratively within a multi-disciplinary team.

KSC6 - Demonstrate a commitment to professional learning and growth relating to your role and in line with the school’s vision.

KSC7 - Knowledge and understanding of Child Safe Standards.

**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**:

- Manage the design and production of school publications and documents.
- 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.

The Mental Health and Wellbeing Officer will have a Diploma of Community Services or Diploma of Youth Work.

The Mental Health and Wellbeing Officer will be responsible for supporting students who are identified by the Student Support Team as requiring support from Tier two or Tier three interventions. They will work under the direction of the Mental Health Practitioner to:

- Facilitate small group tier two interventions to support students mental health and overall wellbeing
- Provide support to individual students to implement Mental Health support plan, mental health safety plans or any other intervention recommended by the MHP.
- To work with Classroom teams to model effective implementation of mental health strategies and support the fidelity of the interventions recommended by the MHP.
- To provide feedback to the MHP/Welfare Team regarding the effectiveness of interventions and any challenges which are impacting the student
- Maintain Professi
