**Location Profile**:
Kerrimuir Primary School is in the in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne with a current enrolment of more than 580 students. The school is located on spacious grounds with a stand-alone art room, computer laboratory, multipurpose room and a library. The Before and After Care facility (run by Team KIds) shares a school building and is well used. The multi-cultural nature of the school is a great asset, enriching the educational experiences of all students.

We have a very well balanced staff team in terms of experience and gender. Our staff is very dedicated and committed to developing a learning environment which maximises the overall educational needs of our students. We only employ staff with a high level of emotional maturity, who are responsible and innovative in approach. We seek to continue to improve in all areas over the next decade, using current research, DET best practice and via the creative and innovative use of ICT.

The school environment is warm and friendly
- people enjoy working at Kerrimuir Primary School. We have high expectations of our students, both behaviourally and academically
- and work with the students to set SMART goals in literacy and numeracy. We expect staff and students to uphold respectful behaviours at all times and for staff to work with children to ensure they behave appropriately. Student well-being is an important focus. Our aim is to provide a teaching and learning program of the highest quality, which continues to evolve as new educational issues challenge us. A positive approach to student management and the development of positive relationships within our school community are a critical part of our ethos
- we expect teachers and students to be aware of the learning intention for each session and for the students to understand the success criteria for each lesson. Our Literacy program is based upon a phonemic approach using Synthetic Phonics.

Our school values are - CARE.

Care for people and the environment

Achieve our best

Respect ourselves and others

Educating your child for the future

Staff are expected to uphold these values themselves and ensure the school students are also modelling these behaviours every day at school. We have a detailed code of conduct for the whole school community. We ask that staff model and explicitly teach these values throughout the year, and recognise they are teachers of all children at the school, not just those in their classroom. As such, proactive intervention, as required, is a must do for all staff when seeing children in distress, misbehaving or acting in such a way that they or other children are not safe. This applies in a classroom, in the yard, in the school grounds and anywhere throughout the school.

We currently have specialists in Physical Education, Performing Arts, Visual Art, Robotics and Japanese. Students are also able to receive tuition in musical instruments such as keyboard, guitar and drums outside of school hours. All students have the opportunity to participate in an intensive swimming program. Our camping program includes children from Grade 2 to Grade 6. We provide many and varied opportunities for students to develop their leadership skills, both formally and informally. We also run a number of programs aimed at further developing students¿ social skills and work habits. We run extension and intervention programs, to ensure children are taught at point of need (using Vygotsky¿s Zone of Proximal Development).
We are fortunate to have a very active parent community and an informed and pro-active School Council. Parents support the school through involvement in classroom programs, fundraising, sports activities, camps and excursions and numerous other activities.

We are seeking staff to complement our school, with a high work ethic, who are calm, well organised and innovative, with a sense of humour. Our school¿s greatest asset is the people who work here, our students and our school parents and their families
- we are keen to select staff who fit best with our ethos. We are seeking staff who will work positively with the Principal, the Leadership team, all staff, students and parents of the school; who will live our vision and values, and will be an asset to further develop the future learning of the students at Kerrimuir. We seek a committed person, with excellent inter-personal skills, able to inspire students, using current research to drive explicit teaching and positive behaviour management techniques to gain best results for all children. We want staff who are able to develop a rapport with the students and can ensure progress for each student. We also want staff who are happy and able to work effectively in a team environment.
