Melbourne, Australia Schools (Government) Full time

Location: Melbourne | Southern Metropolitan

Job type: Full time / From 02/10/2023

Organisation: Schools (Government)

**Salary**: Salary not specified

Occupation: Education and Training

Reference: 1362221

**Selection Criteria**:
KSC1 - Ability to provide counselling for young people and their families and liaise with support services in the local community.

KSC2 - well developed communication, networking and interpersonal skills, including the ability to work effectively with people from diverse backgrounds.

KSC3 - Capacity to work as part of a collaborative team and actively contribute to the Wellbeing Team.

KSC4 - Demonstrate knowledge of best practice in individual and group interventions for young people with support needs, including counselling, mediation, problem solving and conflict resolutions.

KSC5 - Demonstrate a commitment to ongoing professional growth, as well as a willingness to support other members of staff with their professional learning.

**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.

This role also includes the following:

- Advocacy and support for students and families
- Liaison with external community service providers or allied health professionals
- Consultation and advice for teachers about program development and implementation
- Individual counselling and group sessions to support prevention and early intervention
- Classroom behaviour management
- Ensure records are appropriately maintained and meet all required guidelines
- Provide professional student support services: e.g. targeted group support and counselling services
- Provide strategic advice on specific support services and their impact on students, school curriculum and services
- Provide support and advice to students in Out of Home care and similar circumstances
- Manage the use of and access to school resource and reference material related to the role
- Liaise with Student Wellbeing Coordinator and SSS staff to support student wellbeing
- 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
- Other roles as directed by the Principal and Assistant Principal

**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.
