OVERVIEW
The roles and responsibilities set out below incorporate Schedules 2 and 3 of the _Victorian Government Schools Agreement 20_22 _and the requirements under _Ministerial Order 870 (Child Safe Standards-Managing the Risk of Child Abuse in Schools _

EDUCATION SUPPORT CLASS
Education support class positions are diverse and cover the delivery of support services that include school administration and operations (e.g. human resources, finance, facilities,), school support services (e.g. library, laboratory, information technology), direct student and teaching support (e.g. classroom assistance to teachers, careers counseling, student health and wellbeing).

EDUCATION SUPPORT CLASS LEVEL 1 RANGE 3
An education support class role at this range is distinguished by the introduction of:

management responsibility and accountability for the delivery of services. At this level, an employee may direct and supervise the work of other staff members to achieve specific objectives in school administration, operations or educational programs; or

- professional student support positions where standard professional services are delivered.

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 where it is an integral part of the employee's position or in circumstances where supervision is required individually or in groups up to 4 in controlled circumstances and where the responsibility for students remains clearly with a teacher

A role at this range may include:

Some degree of professional autonomy to determine how targets and goals are achieved within clearly established directions or framework Professional autonomy will generally be limited by standard procedures and school policy. Deviation from standard procedures and school policy will require guidance and direction from a senior manager.
Management of the expected outcomes is a key responsibility in some areas such as school administration, operations, technical, or educational programs. Senior management will be provided with 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 school operations.
Management of staff to achieve the expected outcomes is a key responsibility in some areas, such as school administration, operations, or educational programs. Staff management issues will be resolved with mínimal reference to a senior manager, although guidance will be required in more complex cases.
Professional support positions such as registered nurses (performing the role of Registered Nurse range 3 as described in schedule 3), speech pathologists, psychologists, occupational therapists, physiotherapists, and social workers. Professional support and guidance will be close at hand and deviation from standard procedures and school policy will require guidance and direction from a manager or senior practitioner where relevant.
