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 minimal 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 The responsibilities of this position will be, but not limited to:
Deliver instruction in the instrumental music program, individually and/or in small groups Assist and prepare students for instrumental concerts, performances and official school events, some of which may be outside of the regular school day. Assist with administration in the instrumental music program Undertake other tasks as directed by the Head of Music or the Principal Participate in planning days and staff meetings. Who May Apply Individuals with the aptitude, experience and/or qualifications to fulfill the specific requirements of the position.

John Fawkner Secondary College is a growing co-educational secondary college, which operates within a distinct geographical area with a diverse cultural mix.
In 2024, JFC will see two significant changes which highlight the way forward. Firstly, a large part of the school will be demolished to make way for two new buildings: a new Science/STEAM, Arts and Media, and technology wing, which will also house staff members, and a new VET Hospitality grade kitchen classroom and canteen. There will also be significant landscaping within this development.
The second major change for 2024 is the partnership with Melbourne Victory Soccer Club, who will roll out the first pilot team by the second half of the year. Over coming years, the program will grow progressively, opening up to students from across the district.
The school is in a transform stage and is currently experiencing significant change and improvement, across curriculum, learning, and wellbeing. The School Strategic Plan has a strong focus on improving learning through the use of our well documented and viable curriculum and the JFC Instructional Model. Student wellbeing and engagement is supported by the SWPBS framework, and this is reflected in the school values. Each year from 7-10 has a coordinator, supported by a Sub School Leader. VCE and VM students are supported by a Year 11 coordinator and a Senior School Leader.
The college has a strong focus on improving Literacy and Numeracy, and students are identified for support through the Quicksmart program, MYLNS, and the tutor learning initiative. The funded PSD students are supported in the classroom by integration aides and a PSD coordinator. The college boasts a strong wellbeing team, consisting of a full time wellbeing leader, a school nurse, art therapist, and mental health practitioner. Our growing areas currently are in Outdoor Ed, Bike Ed, and PE across all levels as sport is a sought after career pathway for many students.
The students from years 7 - 10 study the Victorian Curriculum and electives. At year 10, students are counselled to appropriate pathways and select from VCE/VM to continue their final years of schooling. The college has rewritten the VM curriculum to be in line with the VCAA reforms through the Firth report and the students are exposed to the Applied Learning Pillars as their framework for learning. All VM students do a Vet subject one day a week, and there is the potential to study a SBAT whilst at school.
The staff at JFC is collegiate and collaborative, led by an executive principal and two assistant principals. The focus is on the future for the students in this area and we seek vibrant, innovative, committed teachers and leaders to join us in our journey of improvement and success. Tours are welcome from prospective employees.
Our Vision: The schools motto is Aspire and Achieve with the vision statement, John Fawkner College takes pride in uniting learners from a diverse community within a respectful and adaptive environment that fosters enjoyment in learning and the motivation to achieve excellence.
Our Values: Respect: We respect others for who they are and value their opinions
Commitment: We are dedicated to our values, our school and our community
Academic Excellence: We relentlessly pursue academic excellence
Continuous Improvement: We never stop finding ways to stretch and grow
