South Oakleigh College is a co-educational secondary school located in the South Eastern suburbs of Melbourne. The College is one of the participating schools of the Oakleigh Education Plan, which is a Victorian Government’s long-term project to improve educational outcomes in Oakleigh and surrounding areas.
Our values: “High Expectations, Respect, Responsibility, Resilience, Teamwork” and our mission statement “providing opportunities for the future and a sense of belonging” underpin the College’s commitment to facilitating a safe and secure environment for all students where they can pursue academic excellence, achieve personal growth and graduate as responsible and resourceful young adults.
The College serves a diverse and multicultural community, providing supportive and stimulating environment for staff and students with impressive facilities and extensive grounds. We foster mutual respect, co-operation, personal responsibility and a growth mindset that values feedback, effort and resilience. The College’s highly professional and motivated staff work collaboratively to ensure student welfare needs are met and high expectations are established and pursued.
The College is committed to providing students learning opportunities which develop a broad range of knowledge, skills and values will enhance their lives and empower them to critically contribute to society and equip them for further education and work in a changing world.

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.
- Ensure the provision of a range of administrative support functions for the instrumental music teachers.
- Provide teaching and learning support to instrumental music program as required.
- Provide required level of administrative support for instrumental music program concerts and other school events.
Individuals with the aptitude, experience and/or qualifications to fulfill the specific requirements of the position.
Applicants seeking part-time employment are encouraged to apply for any teaching service position and, if they are the successful candidate, request a reduced time fraction. Such requests will be negotiated on a case-by-case basis and will be subject to the operational requirements of the school.
