Location Profile

Mount Waverley Secondary College, established in 1964, provides a co-educational setting with a unique Junior Campus for Years 7 and 8 and a Senior Campus for Years 9 to12.  The college, with enrolments of approximately 1800 students, is an established learning community, recognised locally, nationally and internationally for transforming teaching and learning culture.  The college directs significant financial, personnel and resource investment to advance the curriculum, pedagogical and assessment repertoire of all teachers and to build leadership capacity that supports effective change.

Students have access to an extensive curriculum that offers an opportunity for enhancement and support, underpinned by the three drivers of community, choice and engagement.

Students are selected for an enrichment class in Years 7 to 9 and university subjects are available at Year 12.  Students participate in enrichment programs which may include poetry competitions, interschool debating, mathematics competitions, National Chemistry Quiz, Science Talent Search, Da Vinci Decathlon, Australian Computer Competition, Tournament of Minds, ASX competition, SCRAM and World skills.

There is an expectation of academic excellence with frameworks in place to support students.  Literacy and numeracy intervention programs operate from Years 7 to 9.

Co-curricular programs include overseas Sister School exchanges, instrumental music, camps and excursions, drama or musical productions, careers and work experience programs, leadership forums and robotics.  A choice of inter-school sports and special interest clubs including interschool debating, as well as attendance at special events such as the Formal Dinner, Valedictory Dinner and Presentation Night, add to our vibrant community.

Mount Waverley Secondary College has an outstanding record of achievement.  It has an excellent reputation for providing an academic learning environment resulting in a high proportion of our students gaining entrance to tertiary education institutions. 

The learning taking place in the flexible learning spaces at the Junior Campus is attracting significant local, national and international interest and is producing enhanced levels of student learning and engagement.

KSC1 Demonstrated ability to maintain buildings, including the ability to follow procedures, OHS practices and protocols.

KSC2 Excellent interpersonal and communication skills, in particular the ability to relate to a wide range of people in a school environment, and the ability to maintain confidentiality.

KSC3 Proven ability to use initiative to investigate, prioritise, take appropriate action, and address maintenance problems as directed by the Facilities Manager, Campus Principal or Business Manager.

KSC4 Possess the technical knowledge, expertise, and proficiency in the use of tools and technical equipment as relevant to the position.

Role

Hours of attendance are Monday to Friday 8.00am to 4.06pm.  

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.

Responsibilities

Under the direction of and working with the Facilities Manager and Campus Principal:

  • Provide assistance to the Facilities Manager in improving, maintaining, and caring for school facilities, buildings and grounds including meeting OH&S requirements
  • Monitoring the maintenance star system and prioritising jobs
  • Inspecting school buildings and grounds daily to ensure all is in order
  • Ensure the school grounds and surrounds are kept clean and tidy
  • Maintain the cleanliness and appearance of all external areas including paths and hard surfaces; this will include regular blow downs
  • Assist with the moving of furniture and equipment as required
  • Assist in ensuring classrooms and furniture are in order
  • Minor repairs to fixtures and fittings
  • Removal of graffiti
  • Painting as required
  • Repairs to doors and windows
  • Repairs to desks and chairs
  • Ensure the maintenance of all school tools and maintenance/grounds equipment
  • Assist in maintaining the Arts and Design & Technology equipment and machinery to meet DET OH&S requirements
  • General gardening and landscaping duties as required
  • Undertake other duties as required
Who May Apply

Individuals with the aptitude, experience and/or qualifications to fulfill the specific requirements of the position.
