Location: Melbourne | Southern Metropolitan
Job type: Part time / From 28/01/2025 - 04/07/2025
Organisation: Schools (Government)
**Salary**: Salary not specified
Occupation: Health and Allied Health
Reference: 1449913
**Selection Criteria**:
SC1 Demonstrated ability to deliver care through various health, counselling, wellbeing and therapeutic services to a school(s)
SC2 Demonstrated ability to assess student needs and provide timely relevant advice to teacher, students, and parents to support students behavioural, educational, emotional, psychological development.
SC3 Demonstrated ability to support, provide guidance and assess the competency of the 4th year placement counselling graduate students at the school.
SC4 Demonstrated ability to plan and organise a range of wellbeing and positive psychology-based interventions at the school including workshops for students and

SC5 Demonstrated ability to research and undertake a range of professional development activities to further strengthen own practice and the schools program.
SC6 Outstanding teamwork and interpersonal skills - to be able to communicate effectively and build strong relationships with a wide range of stakeholders in a multicultural local community.
**Role**:
Attendance requirement for this position-4 days per week
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**:
**COORDINATING AND SUPPORTING OTHER WELLBEING PROVIDERS**
¿ The school is co-located with a high school and community centre on-site (with maternal
child care and kindergarten).

collaboration, case conferencing, joint programs and sharing of expertise. The counsellor
will participate in these meetings as part of the broader team.
¿ In liaison with assistant principal (wellbeing) the counsellor will connect with students and
their families, and were possible their external providers to be the central point of contact
between the school, family and support providers.

consulting suites. This will include:
¿ NDIS providers
