The vision for Wangaratta High School is to empower all students to grow academically, socially and emotionally. An outstanding learning environment built on high expectations for success will enable all students, with support, to experience quality teaching within a positive climate for learning. Our graduates will be independent, lifelong learners who are equipped to make a positive impact on the world around them.

We are proud of our 665 students at Wangaratta High School and the variety of pathways they pursue post-secondary school.

Throughout all stages of schooling at Wangaratta High School we aim to develop learners that strive to:

• Achieve their Personal Best
• Be Ready to Learn
• Be Respectful
• Be Safe

To achieve this goal, we offer quality teaching and learning programs delivered by highly skilled, innovative and enthusiastic professionals.

Our contemporary buildings and grounds are second to none and provide a stimulating learning environment where students are able to maximize their potential.

As students transition into their schooling at Wangaratta High School, they experience a challenging curriculum designed to allow them to demonstrate their abilities and progress in their learning.

Our Year 7 to 9 programs build strong foundations for future success. We emphasise the core literacy and numeracy skills across all subjects in the curriculum and students access Italian as their language study. As they progress through the High School, students have growing opportunities to refine their own pathways by selecting an increasing number of electives.

Over the past decade, a significant amount of research has been conducted into engaging Year 9 students and preparing them for the demands in their final years of school. Wangaratta High School has responded to this research, in conjunction with our school data, to develop a Year 9 specific program centred on developing the academic, creative, physical and emotional aspects of our students. Our flagship, Community Leadership Challenge program is an engaging, inquiry based learning experience that fosters greater independence and reignites a passion for learning.

Ensuring our Year 7 students are happy, secure and confident with a strong sense of belonging is a priority for all staff at Wangaratta High School. Students are supported by a dedicated team of experienced teachers in a cluster of rooms in our dedicated Flexible Learning Centre. It is within these spaces that the majority of Year 7 classes are held allowing students to develop a sense of ownership and pride over their environment and a sense of belonging and community amongst themselves and their teachers.

As students transition into later years (Years 10-12) the opportunities to refine their pathways open up and students are provided with a diverse range of subjects from all areas of the VCE/VET and VCAL curriculums. Year 10 students are encouraged to undertake VCE/VET units of study to assist in preparing them for the rigors of a full VCE/VET program the following year.

SC1 Capacity to undertake routine support tasks across a range of functions in one or more work areas within a school environment.

SC2 Demonstrated capacity to communicate effectively with members of the school community including students and the capacity to provide support and/or attendant care to students where necessary.

SC3 Demonstrated proficiency in the use of office systems, software or technical equipment as relevant to the position.

SC4 Capacity to work cooperatively with a range of people including teachers, education support, students and parents.

SC5 A commitment to professional learning and growth.

This position will be based over 4 days per week/6 working hours per day.

Undertakes routine tasks that are usually 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.

Work has little scope for deviation. Problems can usually be solved by reference to well documented procedures and instructions and clearly established practices. Deviation from established procedures will require reference to others for guidance and direction. Assistance is readily available when problems arise. An experienced employee at range 1 will exercise limited judgement within clearly defined guidelines and well established practices that relate specifically to the tasks performed.

Does not carry responsibility for the work of others. More experienced employees will provide basic guidance and advice to others relating to tasks within the work area.

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.

Qualification requirements do not operate at range 1. Certification requirements may be required to legally perform specific tasks - e.g. driver's licence, first aid, safe food handling.

The responsibilities of this position will be:

Assist students on an individual or group basis in specific learning areas.

- Provide basic physical and emotional care for students.
- Participate in team meetings.
