Location Profile
The original Coburg High School was one of the first high schools in Melbourne and we have a long and proud history. Between **** and **** the school was known as Coburg Senior High School with an enrolment of students in Years *****.In **** Coburg High School was re‐established as a Years 7 to 12 school with the inaugural group of Year 7 students. In **** there are over **** students enrolled at CHS and in **** we expect this to grow to around **** students. Attendance rates are above state average and student connection to the school is strong. The SFOE is 0.22 in ****, indicating low levels of disadvantage overall.
Through the involvement of staff and students, in recent years a set of four core values have been established¿Excellence, Integrity, Curiosity and Community and these values underpin expected behaviours, policies, practices, communication and decision-making at the school.
Coburg High School is structured around year level teams with the Student Support Team responsible for the engagement and wellbeing of all students. The dedicated Wellbeing team has two counsellors, a Mental Health Practitioner, School Nurse and Youth Worker. Coburg High School is a School¿Wide Positive Behaviours School, Respectful Relationships lead school and adheres to the tenets of restorative justice. The school has undertaken significant work in establishing an online curriculum management system called Coburg Online Google Sites (COGS). Alongside the development of the COGS to establish a guaranteed and viable curriculum, the school has adopted an instructional model with the acronym GANAG. This model has the key components of goal setting (G), accessing prior knowledge (A), introducing new information (N), applying the new information (A) and finally reviewing the goal (G). Our challenge is to continue to embed the application of High-Impact Teaching Strategies (HITS) within the instructional model paradigm, underpinned by a comprehensive program of professional learning to ensure that strategies are implemented with rigour and fidelity.
As Part of the Food wing, there will be a purpose built VET standard kitchen with coolroom, a junior Food Technology classroom, Dining Room and Food Servery.

Role
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 **** (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.

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.

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, specialisedstudent/teacher support tasks, or technical tasks as experience in the role is gained.
