Selection Criteria:

SC1 Demonstrated understanding of career options, course counselling processes and other Departmental or external initiatives.

SC2 Excellent communication and interpersonal skills to effectively liaise with students, parents and staff at Scoresby Secondary College and community agencies.

SC3 A demonstrated ability to identify issues that prevent students achieving success and to develop strategies and programs to support them.

SC4 A well developed knowledge of vocational and assistance programs available to students.

SC5 Demonstrated ability to plan strategically, manage complex events and to balance competing demands.

Role:

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:

To organise and manage student career plans (years 912) and the College's Careers program
To work with the school administration to ensure each student has an individual pathway supported by learning plans across the school from years 71
To ensure that the Careers Program supports an inclusive literacy and numeracy focus across the school and curriculum
