Location: Western Region | Melton

Job type: Full time / From 28/01/2025 - 26/01/2026

Organisation: Schools (Government)

**Salary**: Salary not specified

Occupation: Health and Allied Health

Reference: 1439167

**Location Profile**:
Kurunjang Primary School is located in the north of Melton. The school has a current enrolment of 565 students. Our mission is to achieve high levels of learning for all students with a motto of 'Learning Together'. We are committed to being an inclusive, safe and positive community where students are empowered to achieve learning and life success.

We emphasise the values of Respect, Excellence, Responsibility, Effort, Resilience and Empathy and have personified each as superheroes in our School Wide Positive Behaviour Supports. The Berry St Education Model frames consistency within our instructional practice.

The essential learnings for our students have been documented from the Victorian Curriculum. Our Strategic Plan is aligned to FISO 2.0, specifically in the priorities of Learning and Wellbeing.

Our school is structured into Professional Learning Teams in Foundation, Year 1/2, 3/4, 5/6 and Specialists. Each PLT is headed by a team leader who leads curriculum planning and monitoring of student achievement and data. They are supported by Leading Teachers in Literacy, Numeracy, and Student Engagement and Inclusion.

Classroom programs are supported by specialist programs including Physical Education, Visual Arts, Performing Arts, LOTE Auslan, Science, Kitchen Garden, EMU (Extending Mathematical Understanding), EAL and LLI (Levelled Literacy Intervention).

**Selection Criteria**:
SC1: Experience in the initiation, development and implementation of intervention and programs which support the social and emotional needs of students.

SC2: Demonstrated high level interpersonal and communication skills. Demonstrated experience in establishing and maintaining collaborative relationships with students, parents, colleagues and the wider school community.

SC3: Demonstrated ability to provide information, advice and support to families and external professionals who are supporting/working with students experiencing difficulties with their social and emotional wellbeing.

SC4: Strong knowledge and understanding of Child Safe Standards.

SC5: Demonstrated commitment to upholding DET values.

**Role**:
There is no additional attendance requirement for this position.

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**:
The responsibilities of this position will include but is not limited to:

- Liaising with external providers of support services about clearly defined support needs and resources.
- Conducting routine presentations to parents to assist teachers in communicating objectives an
