12 hours each week attending Monday and Tuesday.

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.

Langley Primary School is a small rural school, 10 minutes’ drive from the centre of Kyneton township. We provide all students an inspiring and responsive education to promote thinking and encourage curiosity. We nurture individual talents and needs in our setting underpinned by high expectations, quality opportunities and caring personalised attention in order for our children to reach their full academic and social potential.

Our vales Responsible, Respectful Courageous and Kind underpin our safe and caring family orientated school community.

We provide a welcoming atmosphere characterised by well-managed systems and processes focused on student achievement and wellbeing. Small classes allow us to focus on the explicit teaching of literacy and numeracy as well as develop diverse skills through the exploration of rich tasks across F-6. Our curriculum program includes music and art delivered fortnightly by a specialised teacher as well as STEM and Landcare sessions. A unique aspect of the program is our WAVES Care Program which offers age and stage related approaches to student wellbeing and development.  We value Emotional Intelligence as an explicitly taught aspect of the curriculum through a partnership with Swinburne University.

Being emotionally intelligent has the greatest impact on academic outcomes.
