**Salary**: Salary not specified
**Grade**:Education Support - Level 1, Range 2
**Occupation**:Education and training
**Location**:Melbourne - Northern suburbs
**Reference**:1484536
**Location Profile**:
- Glenroy Special School provides a stimulating, caring and safe learning environment for students with physical disabilities/health impairments. We provide for students who are aged from 5 to 18 years and currently have an enrolment of 134.
- Many students have multiple disabilities with visual impairment, hearing impairment and epilepsy in addition to their physical disability. We also have students with high-support health care needs. Three nurses manage the general wellbeing and health support. Glenroy Special School staff work together to provide students with a comprehensive program within an integrated curriculum.
- The school environment is designed with an extensive hoist system, internal & external play areas, hydrotherapy & nursing facilities, and a transport hub for the fleet of buses that transport the students to and from school. A refurbished performing arts precinct was opened in February 2024, allowing the students to participate in music, visual and performing arts in a world class facility.
- The school operates in a Team Around the Learner model where all stakeholders working with the student work in a collaborative manner to ensure the student succeeds at school. The school has a team of Therapists (Speech, Occupational, Physiotherapist & Music Therapist's) to support the students to access their learning.
- The school is divided into three sub-schools each with a sub-school leader. Sub-schools are age based with individual classes formed to cater for student academic and social abilities. School specialist teaching rooms include art, library, music/music therapy, performing arts, physiotherapy and OT spaces, sensory rooms, and a hydrotherapy pool. All staff support students in education, therapy & recreation programs. All staff participate in personal care programs and are involved in manual handling.
- Our vision at Glenroy Specialist School is to educate in an inclusive, respectful, compassionate, and creative learning environment. This provides the opportunity for our community to feel empowered, happy, resilient, and proud. The school values are - Respect, Inclusion, Compassion and Creativity. The school motto of 'Working Together To Achieve' acknowledges the strong partnerships that underpin all that is achieved by the school and our students.

- Capacity to be physically involved in programs across the school including manual handling and personal care
- Capacity to mindfully undertake personal care tasks, as part of a team, ensuring students have opportunities to develop their skills while maintaining their safety and dignity
**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.
