About the Position

This is a truly collegiate role offering unique challenges and opportunities – both in your professional development and your ability to make an impact on the lives of children and young people.

Child psychologists are an essential part of the school counselling service and work in primary and high schools. They provide counselling and psychological assessment of students, to complement and enhance the work of teachers to strengthen student learning and wellbeing outcomes, and help families understand and manage their children's learning and mental health needs.

The successful candidate will be based at a rural technology high school and provided with opportunities to work across the lifespan with both primary and high school aged students. Working in a public school will enable you to engage with a diversity of students (and school communities) like no other child psychologist role can.

This is a chance to use your skills to make a real difference in the lives of children and young people at a time in their lives when it matters most.

Key Responsibilities
  • Provides counselling and psychological services to students, individually and in groups, including appropriate short term therapeutic interventions undertaken within the constraints of their training, experience and supervision
  • Engages with and implements the procedures of the Professional Practice Framework for the school counselling service
  • Works in consultation with the principal, school executive, staff and student support services to improve student learning and wellbeing outcomes and implement current priorities
  • Contributes to the social, emotional, and academic development of students, and supports schools and students with complex behavioural needs
  • Administers cognitive, social, emotional and behavioural assessments of students, reports on the results of assessments and interventions and collaborates to improve learning, wellbeing and mental health outcomes
  • Works collaboratively with learning and support teams, parents and carers, and other agencies, to develop appropriate support for students
  • Responds as part of a team to assist schools experiencing serious incidents
  • Refers students and/or their families and carers to other agencies that will support the development of student health and wellbeing outcomes
