**Location Profile**:
Newcomb Secondary College provides a vibrant and modern education that has a future-focused curriculum and holistic student well-being support. Established in 1969, the college takes pride in its rich history and its commitment to creating positive pathways for young people in Geelong. The college takes its name from the surrounding suburb which is named after one of the area¿s earliest settlers, Caroline Newcomb. For over 50 years, Newcomb Secondary College has been creating positive pathways for young people in Geelong.

Newcomb Secondary College is proud to have been the first Australian-based school to offer a P-Tech Program. This program enables students to participate in corporate partner-supported pathways to learning and employment within science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) related industries. Through a partnership with the Gordon TAFE and key members of the Geelong business community, the College ensures that its school leavers are equipped with the skills needed for success in the workforce of the 21st century.

The College is committed to students maximising their personal growth through broad participation in a range of extra-curricular programs. Students develop confidence, teamwork, and leadership through their involvement with the extensive sports program, academic challenges, instrumental music tuition, and the renowned Music and Bike Tours providing Newcomb students the chance for students to build their resilience, which often results in the forging of lifelong friendships.

Newcomb Secondary College is dedicated to establishing a school environment that allows its students to grow and thrive intellectually, emotionally, and socially. The college's open and light-filled learning spaces, along with its inclusive atmosphere, impress visitors. The recent redevelopment of the college has led to the refurbishment of math classrooms and music program areas, a state-of-the-art STEM space, and a 128-seat auditorium, contributing to an excellent learning and teaching environment. The college provides valuable opportunities for students to develop confidence in their leadership abilities as they work cooperatively with others. Community volunteer programs enrich student development and projects that enable students to work in and with their community. Sport is encouraged at all levels. Throughout the school year inter-house competitions are held to foster and encourage teamwork and enthusiasm across the College. Our sporting houses are also named after prominent citizens
- Harrison, Drysdale, Curlewis and Wills.

It is our belief at Newcomb Secondary College that students who enjoy (and aspire to have) rich and vibrant lifestyles, with access to holistic and proactive personal well-being supports, are the most likely to enjoy lasting success with their learning experiences and individual pathway outcomes. Providing this is how Newcomb Secondary College builds positive futures for all students.

**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
