Melbourne, Australia Education and Training Full time

Location: Melbourne | Northern Metropolitan

Job type: Part time / From 24/04/2023 - 29/03/2024

Organisation: Education and Training

**Salary**: Salary not specified

Occupation: Teacher

Reference: 1336541

**Selection Criteria**:
SC1 Demonstrated skills, experience and qualifications in running Outdoor Activities and an ability to assist with the planning of particular outdoor activities. The ability to lead an outdoor activity is preferred.

SC2 Demonstrated capacity to communicate effectively with members of the school community including students and the capacity to provide support and / or attendant care to students where necessary.

SC3 Demonstrated proficiency in the use of office systems, software or technical equipment as relevant to the position.

SC4 Capacity to work cooperatively with a range of people including teachers, education support, students and parents.

SC5 A commitment to professional learning and growth

**Role**:
Attendance may be required on overnight hikes.

Performs and/or supervises tasks that are carried out in accordance with guidelines, accepted practice and school policy. This may include the supervision and coordination of other education support class staff within the work area or educational program. Supervision and coordination would be limited to ensuring routine tasks are performed to required standards. Input into identifying training needs and development of education support class staff within the work area or educational program becomes an important feature at range 2.

Specialised support to achieve specific outcomes is a feature of range 2. Typically this will involve accountability for a single function, (e.g. ensuring data is properly maintained) or the operation of a work area (e.g. managing the day to day operation of a school office) under the direction of the principal or another senior manager.

Provides support to teachers and students that is beyond the routine support provided at education support class Level 1, range 1. Within an educational program assists teachers with the coordination of the support function, such as directing/organising the work of other support staff or providing a specialist support role.

Undertakes medical intervention support tasks or other specialised student/teacher support roles that require specific training that must be updated from time to time. The role is for a specific purpose for which there will be direct accountability as opposed to support roles that are carried out by a range of staff performing routine tasks under direction.

Performs technical tasks that require a sound knowledge of basic technical and/or scientific principles that are used to develop and adapt work methods and make judgements where there are clear guidelines and limited options. Routine technical support in libraries, science and information technology laboratories would be typical examples.

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**:

- Assist students on an individual or group basis in specific learning areas
- Assist with the communication between students and teachers, particularly the interpretation of instructions
- Provide basic physical and emotional care for students
- Participate in teams
- Assist with toileting, meals, lifting, and administration of medication to students requiring special care
- Assist with the supervision of pupils in playgrounds, at camps, on excursions, in sporting activities, therapy activities and life skills.
- Assist in the preparation of student resources and equipment
- Prepare basic curriculum support resources
- Set up and put away equipment and materials in support of teaching programs.
- Observe students and draw the attention of the teacher to them where necessary
- Participate in monitoring and evaluation of programs and evaluation of individual student involvement and achievement.
