Location Profile

Auburn High School¿s vision is underpinned by the motto `Thinking Beyond¿ with the vital aim of aspirational and achieving high-quality student outcomes. Our values - DARE - are represented by Diversity, Aspiration, Respect, and Excellence and are lived, seen and heard each day as students and staff interact and collaborate proactively. These values are also rewarded and acknowledged in assemblies, house events, extra-curricular offerings. There is a burgeoning House system in place, and our embedded student voice and agency program enriches classroom practice. Surveys, teach the teacher sessions, and student forums provide feedback on classroom learning to teachers who then enrich their practice to maximise student outcomes. Auburn High School focuses on excellence across all areas, including a broad range of Arts, Technology, STEM, HPE and Instrumental music. A wide range of sports and extracurricular activities are offered, providing leadership opportunities for students awarding recognition.

Auburn High School offers a unique academic and extra-curricular program that caters for a culturally and linguistically diverse student population. The school has an excellent reputation in the community as a welcoming and high-performing government school. The school has an SFO of 0.19 and an SFOE of 0.14, considered a very high socio-economic demographic. The current student population is around 720, with enrolments projected to reach 900 in the next five years.

The unique school program is structured around several specialised programs that complement the Victorian Curriculum. Year 7 ¿ 9 students have access to SEAL, French Bi-National or French Language Immersion programs. Year 10 ¿ 12 students may select from VCE, VM, and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Program. Not only are their individual pathways for students, but these programs also provide opportunities for staff professional development.

Auburn High School is the only Victorian government secondary school offering a bi-national French program. The French program is internationally recognised and offers students a creative, dynamic, and modern approach to language learning. The program has been designed to meet the requirements of both the Victorian and French governments (i.e., it meets the Victorian Curriculum requirements) and the French instruction officielles (aefe). The depth of our school culture is also added to by our international student program. Over 60 students choose our school and play a significant role in broadening local students¿ perspectives.

The teaching teams at Auburn High School operate in a collaborative team environment where high expectations exist. Each year level has an Auburn Learner Quality (ALQ) that guides teachers and students in their work. Combined these ALQ¿s prepare the students for their senior years of learning and provide themes for all activities in the broad curricular and extracurricular offering.

Each lesson is purposefully designed using Marzano¿s instructional model (GANAG), underpinned by high-yield teaching strategies to improve learning. All staff work collaboratively in teams to develop and review the curriculum, develop assessment tasks, collect data, and measure student progress. Staff observations form part of our professional learning and share practices in staff forums. Staff collaboration and the development of Teacher Collective efficacy are integral to building an inclusive culture at the school.  

Auburn High School is well-connected to its school community and is a school of choice for families and staff. Teaching and support staff who align with our values, are passionate about education and who are committed to high expectations are welcome to join our team. As a collective we are entering an exciting phase of the school¿s history with a new strategic plan (2024-2027) to guide further enhancement of our current programs. Student outcomes, staff development, and student and staff school experience drive our strategy, and we encourage our whole community to be part of Auburn High¿s success.

Role

The Classroom Teacher classification comprises two salary ranges- range 1 and range 2.  The primary focus of the Classroom Teacher is on the planning, preparation and teaching of programs to achieve specific student outcomes.  The Classroom Teacher engages in critical reflection and inquiry in order to improve knowledge and skills to effectively engage students and improve their learning. 

As the Classroom Teacher gains experience his or her contribution to the school program beyond the classroom increases. All Classroom Teachers may be required to undertake other duties in addition to their rostered teaching duties provided the responsibility is appropriate to the salary range, qualifications, training and experience of the teacher.


Classroom teacher Range 2
Range 2 Classroom Teachers play a significant role in assisting the school to improve student performance and educational outcomes determined by the school strategic plan and state-wide priorities and contributing to the development and implementation of school policies and priorities.

A critical component of this work will focus on increasing the knowledge base of staff within their school about student learning and high quality instruction to assist their school to define quality teacher practice.

Range 2 Classroom Teachers will be expected to:
- Have the content knowledge and pedagogical practice to meet the diverse needs of all students
- Model exemplary classroom practice and mentor/coach other teachers in the school to engage in critical reflection of their practice and to support staff to expand their capacity
- Provide expert advice about the content, processes and strategies that will shape individual and school professional learning
- Supervise and train one or more student teachers
- Assist staff to use student data to inform teaching approaches that enable targets related to improving student learning outcomes to be achieved.


Classroom teacher Range 1
The primary focus of the range 1 Classroom Teacher is on further developing skills and competencies to become an effective classroom practitioner with structured support and guidance from teachers at higher levels and the planning, preparation and teaching of programs to achieve specific student outcomes. These teachers teach a range of students/classes and are accountable for the effective delivery of their programs.  Range 1 Classroom Teachers are skilled teachers who operate under general direction within clear guidelines following established work practices and documented priorities and may have responsibility for the supervision and training of one or more student teachers.

At range 1, teachers participate in the development of school policies and programs and assist in the implementation of school priorities. 
The focus of a range 1 Classroom Teacher is on classroom management, subject content and teaching practice.  New entrants to the teaching profession in their initial teaching years receive structured support, mentoring and guidance from teachers at higher levels.

Under guidance, new entrants to the teaching profession will plan and teach student groups in one or more subjects and are expected to participate in induction programs and other professional learning activities that are designed to ensure the integration of curriculum, assessment and pedagogy across the school.

Teachers at range 1 are responsible for teaching their own classes and may also assist and participate in policy development, project teams and the organisation of co-curricula activities.

Responsibilities

The role of Classroom Teacher may include but is not limited to:

  • Direct teaching of groups of students and individual students;
  • Contributing to the development, implementation and evaluation of a curriculum area or other curriculum program within the school;
  • Undertaking other classroom teaching related and organisational duties as determined by the School Principal;
