Job description

Location Profile

Wantirna College is a single campus Year 7-12 School of approximately 1490 students, situated in the eastern suburbs of Melbourne, about 25 kilometres from the city centre. The College was founded in 1980 and consists of a core of well-maintained brick buildings, with additional portable buildings, in an attractive garden setting spread throughout the spacious grounds with panoramic views of the Dandenong Ranges. The College facilities include a new state of the art theatre, university style cafeteria, new and refurbished buildings that incorporate flexible open learning spaces as well as landscaped courtyards.

Wantirna College draws students from both local and surrounding primary schools. Demand for places at the College has been consistently strong and as part of the enrolment strategy there is a Department of Education and Training approved enrolment ceiling of 1500 students. Most of our students walk to school or are transported by their parents or buses.

The school family occupations index (SFO) is 0.35 and has remained fairly consistent over the last four years. The Language Background Other than English (LBOTE) proportion is 0.13 and again has been consistent over a large number of years. The College also has an international student program. This program takes approximately 20 overseas fee paying students largely from China and Vietnam.

Our EFT (effective fulltime teachers) is approximately 104 teachers. There is a Principal Team of 5 (one Principal and four Assistant Principals) and 54 non-teaching staff who provide support to both the teaching staff and students. This support covers Administration, Library, Science, Integration, Learning Support, Quick smart, Food Technology, Facilities, Gardening, School Nurses and ICT.

We operate two sub schools, the Middle School 7-8 and Senior School 9-12. Each sub school has its own administration, overseen by an Assistant Principal and Leaders of Sub school and operates within its own pedagogical guidelines. There is a strong and consistent whole school approach to welfare and discipline with an emphasis on emotional intelligence.

Students in Year 7 and 8 experience a core curriculum based around eight learning areas. The only choice in terms of subjects is LOTE where we offer Spanish and Chinese. This subject choice will be a factor in determining the student¿s home group. In Year 9 and 10 students undertake a course that is half elective and half core. Again, it is structured around eight learning areas. Early start VCE is accessible for Year 10 students who are achieving well. In Year 11 and 12 we offer a wide range of VCE units, comprehensive VCAL and VET programs.

The Wellbeing Team at the College is well supported through a range of Education Support Staff, including 1.5 Mental Health Practitioners, two Student Wellbeing Social Workers, two First Aid Officers, along with several placement students undertaking social worker work experience. The team support and run a number of key areas within the school including breakfast club, targeted student wellbeing interventions, counselling services for students and liaising with external services including DFS, Orange Door and Navigator, to ensure our students receive the best possible support to be successful.

Selection Criteria

SC1.     Showcased expertise in planning, decision-making, and resource management to establish an ICT strategy for a school or organization and effectively implement it within the daily functions of an ICT team.

SC2.     Demonstrated track record of establishing objectives and priorities, tracking progress, and achieving deadlines and targets consistently.

SC3.     Proven capability in leading, managing, and enhancing the capabilities of a team of employees.

SC4.     Ability to independently analyse, plan and implement new technologies as an integral part of education and evaluate its benefits to teaching and learning.

SC5.     Highly skilled and experienced in managing and deploying Computer network infrastructure (including Firewall/Proxy, Switches, Servers, Cloud Plaforms) and cyber security.

SC6.     Proficient in collaborating productively with internal and external stakeholders.

Role

Range 4 is distinguished by broader management responsibility, particularly in the areas of finance, human resource and other support functions.  Range 4 is responsible for managing a range of functions under a wide range of conditions, subject to the size and complexity of school operations. 

Objectives will, generally, be clearly defined; guidelines will be broad and day-to-day direction minimal.  Management responsibility extends to ensuring appropriate support levels are maintained across the school.  Range 4 generally provides key support and timely advice to the leadership team and school council and liaises with the general school community, the Department and other government agencies and service providers.

Specialised professional roles will carry a high level of independence and accountability where suitable scope is provided to achieve objectives.

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.

Responsibilities

  Managing school ICT infrastructure and equipment.

·        Managing ICT Team performance, fostering a positive team culture, and promoting continuous improvement.

·        Ensuring efficient day-to-day ICT operations, including prompt response to faults and service interruptions.

·        Developing and maintaining ICT policies, standards, and procedures.

·        Upholding ICT system security and integrity with effective tools and procedures.

·        Planning and implementing school device management using a robust Mobile Device Management system.

·        Leading ICT disaster recovery and service continuity planning and execution.

·        Providing leadership, training, and guidance to the ICT team and all staff.

·        Remaining highly attuned to/informed on emerging learning technologies and trends, including, for example, A.I. and being able to advise on their possible use within a school setting.

·        Collaborating with the school Leadership Team to align ICT with the school's educational vision.

·        Driving continuous improvement through innovative ICT integration opportunities.

·        Leading change processes for implementing new ICT solutions.

·        Managing resources such as budgeting, ordering, and contracts in line with school priorities.

·        Cultivating positive relationships with the Department of Education's Information Management and Technology Division and external ICT providers.

·        Monitoring external service providers' performance in delivering agreed services.

·        Any other tasks determined by the Business Manager or Principal.

     Reporting to the Business Manager, the ordinary hours of attendance for this role will be from 8:00am to 4:06pm during the school term. Given the leadership nature of this role, these hours of attendance are not flexible. Additional work hours may be required and will attract time-in-lieu entitlements pursuant to the VGSA 2022. Experience within the Victorian Department of Education and CASES/Compass highly regarded.
