**Location**:Melbourne - Western suburbs

**Reference**:1488532

**Location Profile**:

- We believe that our students flourish when we create an environment of high support and high expectations. We focus on learning, wellbeing, and their interconnectedness above all else.
- Our staff are united by moral purpose. We come to work each day in service of our community. We are deeply connected to our work because of, not in spite of, the challenges that young people face.
- Our school serves 1463 students with a team of more than 170 staff. Each one of them are known and noticed. We see partnership with families as critical to our students¿ success. We believe that together, our community has everything that our young people need to thrive in life.
- We pride ourselves on a strong staff culture that fosters psychological safety with strong relationships, agreed trademark behaviours and genuine conversations about what matters most. Our trademark is not just a statement, it is enacted. We model and reward trademark behaviours in each other and we challenge when we let them slip.
- Melton Secondary College is a place of growth for our staff in both teaching and leadership. At our school, teachers learn to be excellent practitioners developed by a pipeline of leaders. We have an exceptionally strong induction program for staff joining the College that serves both experienced and beginning practitioners. Our unique Expert Teacher program renumerates teachers for their outcomes in student learning and wellbeing. Expert Teachers are recognised for their talent and are paid at a Learning Specialist level to keep teaching with excellence. The role comes with no strings attached. No leadership position. No extra portfolio. No extra meetings. Just teach and deliver results.
- We have a whole-school approach to curriculum, where strong practitioners invest in writing strong curriculum which allows teams and individual teachers to spend less time working out 'what¿ to teach and more time focussing on 'how¿ to teach the content in a way that is highly effective for their specific students.
- We believe that if we invest in every staff member to support them to be their best, our students will be best-placed to thrive. We have our 9-day face-to-face fortnight option for our staff, allowing them to benefit from a non-student contact day in their fortnight, creating opportunities for flexible work and regular opportunities for recharging and for deep thinking and reflection.
- We use best-practice models to ensure deep learning. Our instructional model LEARN is based on the Marzano/Pollock GANAG model and is used with fidelity in our classrooms. Our resource management systems are supported by partnerships with Office365, Compass and Apple through our Year 7-9 iPad program. A BYOD program is offered to our Year 10-12 students.
- Students begin the day connecting in with themselves and each other in a 6-minute morning circle as part of our Social Emotional Learning program. They also take part in our Enrichment program, offering a regular, purposeful session to explore their interests, develop new skills and build meaningful connections in programs spanning Arts, Sports, Communication and Service. For our staff and students, Enrichment has become a highlight of the week, offering a unique opportunity to learn, grow and connect outside the traditional classroom.
- We have opportunities for staff who are passionate about being highly impactful teachers who lead learning. Currently we are deepening our work with a focus on explicit teaching and mastery. We are also actively supporting opportunities for new and existing staff to promote extracurricular programs in the Performing Arts, Sport and Rugby Academy, the VCE Vocational Major, and Student Leadership.
