At Staughton College, we are deeply passionate about high-quality education and its positive impact on young people and their communities. For us, education is more than just imparting knowledge; it's about nurturing the whole individual, fostering a love for learning, and equipping students with the skills and values they need to succeed in life.

Over the past decade, our college has grown significantly, now serving over 1,500 students with a dedicated team of 160 staff members. Our community thrives on the belief that students excel when their learning and well-being are closely connected. We are committed to creating an environment where every student has the opportunity to become the best version of themselves.

Our guiding philosophy is grounded in equity of access and high expectations, ensuring that all children will learn and achieve their full potential. We ensure that all students leave Staughton College with a love of learning, a strong sense of self-worth, confidence, independence, risk-taking skills, and self-discipline. High expectations for learning and behaviour are tied to respect for the rights and responsibilities of all members of our community.

Staughton College is a place where students are empowered to be dynamic members of our community, actively participating in both classroom learning and extracurricular activities. Through our Staughton Student Matrix, we explicitly teach and acknowledge key positive behaviours that enhance learning, effort, and respect. As an accredited Select Entry Accelerated Learning (SEAL) school, we offer specialized pathways for highly able students, ensuring they receive the support and opportunities needed to excel.

A cornerstone of our philosophy is a staff culture that prioritizes strong relationships and open, meaningful conversations about what truly matters. This culture is not just a statement¿it¿s something we live out every day. We consistently model and reinforce these values, ensuring we support one another while also holding ourselves accountable to the highest standards.

We believe that by investing in every staff member and supporting them in being their best, our students will be best placed to thrive. This commitment is reflected in the ongoing support and the many opportunities we provide for professional growth in teaching and leadership.

Our teaching staff use point-of-need data and assessments to plan personalized learning environments, effectively engaging students and meeting their unique needs. Our instructional model, based on the Marzano/Pollock GANAG framework, is used consistently across classrooms, ensuring deep learning. We also embrace a whole-school approach to curriculum development, where strong practitioners invest in writing robust curriculum frameworks, allowing teaching teams to focus on how to teach content effectively.

At Staughton College, we strive to exceed expectations, fostering a culture where everyone-students and staff alike-can grow, learn, and achieve excellence.

This is position is Full Time (1.0 Time Fraction). School Holiday attendance of up to 6 days per year may be required.

Hours of Work: 8:00 - 4:06pm - subject to change

An education support class position at this range will perform tasks that are carried out in accordance with guidelines, accepted practice, and school policy under supervision and direction. This may include coordination of other education support class staff within the work area or educational program.

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 individually or in groups up to 4 in controlled circumstances and where the responsibility for students remains clearly with a teacher.

Certification and/or qualifications of up to three years can be required at this level (noting that Registered Nurse is not included at this level, the first level for which is Level 1 range 3).

A role at this range may include:

• Specific support tasks to achieve outcomes. Typically, this will involve accountability for a single function, (e.g. ensuring data is properly maintained) or the co-ordination of a work area under the direction of the principal or a manager.
• Assisting teachers, within an educational program, by undertaking specific support tasks or the coordination of the support function.
• Supervised health and wellbeing support tasks, medical intervention support tasks, or other specialised student/teacher support roles (e.g. enrolled nurses performing the role as described in schedule 3). These roles require specific qualifications and/or training, including roles where further training must be undertaken from time to time. The role is for a specific purpose, for which there will be direct accountability as opposed to support roles that are carried out by a range of staff performing routine tasks under direction.
• Technical tasks that require a sound knowledge of basic technical and/or scientific principles that are used to develop and adapt work methods and make judgements where there are clear guidelines and limited options. Routine technical support in libraries, science, and information technology would be typical examples.

An education support class position at this range commencing at the base will initially be limited to undertaking routine tasks that are carried out under close supervision and direction. Work that carries some degree of independence will generally involve a limited number of tasks performed on a regular basis where priorities are clear, procedures are well established, and direction is readily available. Subject to any specific qualification and/or training requirement, an education support class employee employed in this range may be progressively required to undertake coordination, specialised student/teacher support tasks, or technical tasks as experience in the role is gained.

The role requires a motivated individual willing to undertake the full range of administrative tasks associated with the day-to-day operation of a secondary school.

The successful applicant will need to be multi-skilled, have a capacity to be flexible, and be able to multi-task in a busy environment.

Duties may include:

• Reception & Telephone
• Monitoring School email address
