RoleAttendance requirement for this position:
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 employees position or involves supervision of students individually or in small groups, in controlled circumstances, where the responsibility for students remains clearly with a teacher.

Location ProfileWe are seeking an experienced and enthusiastic Salon Assistant and Barber VET Teacher for a 0.2 position (Fridays). In this role, you will support students in both practical salon activities and classroom-based training, helping them develop essential skills for a career in the hairdressing and barbering industry.
About Kensington Community School (KCHS) is a small secondary school with the capacity to enrol approximately 100 students, enrolled across 5 classes between years 7 and 12. KCHS is a special-purpose setting designed for the inclusion of young people who have experienced difficulty in their previous educational settings. The school specialises in providing significant learning and wellbeing supports for the needs of these students. Many of the young people who choose to enrol at our school have not experienced learning success, or a sense of connectedness, to mainstream schools for a range of reasons.
The school's ethos is centred on five key values: Community, Achievement, Respect, Effort and Safety (CARES). Working collaboratively, staff and students have developed specific expectations for each value that are the basis of teaching and learning, with participation in and around the wider community.
In our school we endeavour to build positive relationships between adults and our young people so that they might flourish and realise their potential. To facilitate these relationships, we run smaller class sizes and utilise co-teaching to ensure our students learning and wellbeing needs are fully supported.
At our school, pastoral teachers and education support staff assist young people to set personalised learning goals based upon their passions or interests. Staff strive to enable student voice, encouraging young people to exercise as much choice as possible in their learning. Pastoral teachers also ensure that the teaching and learning program as a whole meets the standards of the Victorian Curriculum F10, and that it enables the reporting of student achievement against the achievement standards. At Year 11 & 12, the school offers the VCE Vocational Major (VM), or the Victoria Pathways Certificate (VPC), formerly known as VCAL for students. From year 10, students complete a VET course as part of their VM or VPC studies. We have partnered with AIE & AIET registered RTOs to deliver a range of Certificates in Visual Arts, Outdoor Education, Hospitality, Hair & Beauty, and Creative Industries. The certificates are taught on campus at KCHS.
The wellbeing of every student at KCHS is our highest priority. The KCHS wellbeing model is a multi-tiered system of support, which is a systematic improvement framework whereby continuous data-based problem-solving and decision making is practised at the school. It is a strengths-based approach, implementing early identification and intervention strategies, that utilises high-impact, evidence-based pedagogical and wellbeing practices. This ensures every student receives the appropriate level of support, instructional intervention, and adjustments to be successful.
Through School-Wide Positive Behaviour System (SWPBS) the school creates positive relationships to provide opportunities for our students to develop connections with their communities, and an understanding of the world around them. We commit to providing accessible, authentic, and ongoing learning for all within our school community.
The school is currently beginning the implementation of the Berry Street Education Model (BSEM), a trauma-informed practice approach to student-centric learning and wellbeing. BSEM promotes wellbeing in the school and supports teachers to meet the individual needs of each student.
The school acknowledges that some students may need extra social, emotional, or educational support at school, and that the needs of students will change over time as they grow and learn. We commit to resourcing a highly skilled wellbeing team to support young people and their families to engage with education.
We are seeking exceptional educators and support staff to join our highly professional and dedicated team to transform learning and wellbeing. If you believe that an innovative approach is needed to engage students and improve outcomes, while better preparing them for a rapidly changing world, then I encourage you to apply to join our dynamic team.
