Melbourne, Australia Education Full time

Location: Melbourne | Eastern Metropolitan

Job type: Full time / From 24/04/2023 - 20/12/2023

Organisation: Education

**Salary**: Salary not specified

Occupation: Education and Training

Reference: 1340416

**Selection Criteria**:
SC1 Demonstrated experience in adolescent welfare programs.

SC2 Possess high level oral and written communication skills and the qualifications and technical knowledge and expertise relevant to the position.

SC3 Demonstrated ability to work as a member of a team.

SC4 Demonstrated capacity to case manage individual students, providing quality programming and interventions.

SC5 Capacity to assist other staff in implementing quality engagement and wellbeing practices.

SC6 Ability to design and deliver alternative targeted programs.

**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**:

- 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 Student Counsellor works within a team providing comprehensive and integrated framework to respond to the needs of students and their families. There should be an emphasis on prevention and early intervention strategies and approaches through the development of programs, procedures and policies in line with DET and the College.

The duties of a Student Counsellor include counselling students whose behaviour, school progress or mental or physical impairment indicate a need for assistance; consulting with the Colleges Mental Health Practictioners and Student Welfare Coordinator to determine the cause of the problems and to implement solutions in order to maximise their wellbeing and engagement in learning.

**Who May Apply**:
Individuals with the aptitude, experience and/or qualifications to fulfill the specific requirements of the position.

**EEO AND OHS Commitment**:
The Department values diversity and is committed to workforce diversity and equal opportunity in schools and all education workplaces. The Department recognises that the provision of family friendly, supportive, safe and harassment free workplaces is essential to high performance and promotes flexible work, diversity and safety across all schools and Department workplaces.

**Child Safe Standards**:
**DET Values**:
**Other Information**:

- All staff employed by the Department and schools have access to a broad range of employment conditions and working arrangements.

**Conditions of Employment**:

- All staff employed by the Department and schools have access to a broad range of employment conditions and working arrangements.
