**Salary**: Salary not specified

Occupation: Education and Training

Reference: 1436856

**Selection Criteria**:

3. Demonstrated communication strategies that are effective in the pool environment

5. Demonstrated ability with OH&S issues related to the swimming pool

**Mandatory Qualifications**

Current Aust swim accreditation

First Aid Level 3

**Role**:
An education support class position at this range will perform tasks that are carried out in accordance with guidelines, accepted practice, and school policy under supervision and direction. This may include coordination of other education support class staff within the work area or educational program.

An education support class position supports the educational services being provided to students but must not include duties of a teacher as defined in clause 2.6.1 of the _Education and Training Reform Act 2006 (Vic)_ or its successor. Supervision of students can be required individually or in groups up to 4 in controlled circumstances and where the responsibility for students remains clearly with a teacher.

Certification and/or qualifications of up to three years can be required at this level (noting that Registered Nurse is not included at this level, the first level for which is Level 1 range 3).

A role at this range may include:

- Specific support tasks to achieve outcomes. Typically, this will involve accountability for a single function, (e.g. ensuring data is properly maintained) or the co-ordination of a work area under the direction of the principal or a manager.
- Assisting teachers, within an educational program, by undertaking specific support tasks or the coordination of the support function.
- Supervised health and wellbeing support tasks, medical intervention support tasks, or other specialised student/teacher support roles (e.g. enrolled nurses performing the role as described in schedule 3). These roles require specific qualifications and/or training, including roles where further training must be undertaken 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.
- 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 would be typical examples.

An education support class position at this range commencing at the base will initially be limited to undertaking routine tasks that are carried out under close supervision and direction. Work that carries some degree of independence will generally involve a limited number of tasks performed on a regular basis where priorities are clear, procedures are well established, and direction is readily available. Subject to any specific qualification and/or training requirement, an education support class employee employed in this range may be progressively required to undertake coordination, specialised student/teacher support tasks, or technical tasks as experience in the role is gained.

**Responsibilities**:
The responsibilities of this position will be:
Instruct students in water safety as outlined in Austswim

Provide a safe environment where students feel confident to learn new skills

Instruct students in survival procedures and strokes as well as each of the four competitive strokes

Provide stimulation, stretching, and relaxation for students with complex needs

Maintain a relaxed and stimulating lesson while not comprising student safety

Assist with dressing of students before and after lessons

Recognise and plan for individual students¿ differences, backgrounds, abilities, and learning styles

Set realistic and achievable goals for each student in consultation with members of the SSG (Teachers,
Therapists, and Parents).

Manage student behaviour and welfare in accordance with the school¿s policies and practices

Ensure the safety of all students in the pool by maintaining constant visual surveillance of students

Keep accurate and appropriate records for individual students

Write appropriate reports using the schools report writing system at two reporting times during the
academic year

Communicate with teachers and therapists concerning ind
