Daily Organiser/Timetabler/ PCT Support and Administration

Daily Organiser/Timetabler/ PCT Support and Administration 3d ago , from Department of Education & Training Victoria Kurunjang Primary School was opened in 1989 and is located 35 kilometers northwest of Melbourne, in the northern area of Melton, in the Kurunjang estate, adjacent to Kurunjang Secondary College. The school’s strategic direction was centered on improving student outcomes in literacy and numeracy, improving students’ confidence and engagement in learning and their connectedness with their peers, the teachers, the school and the community. We focused on establishing a safe, calm and orderly learning environment; and maximizing all aspects of school operations resource allocations to achieve the best possible outcomes for students. Our prioritized initiatives within the Framework for Improving Student Outcomes (FISO 2.0) are Building Leadership Teams, Building Practice Excellence, Curriculum Planning and Assessment, and Setting Expectations and Promoting Inclusion. The leadership structure in 2024 consisted of a substantive Principal and two substantive Assistant Principals: one overseeing Years F-2 / Wellbeing, and the other managing Years 3-6 / Teaching and Learning. The school also had five Leading Teachers (DI, Engagement, Numeracy, Literacy, EAL), two Learning Specialists focusing on Inquiry and ICT, alongside a team of classroom teachers and Education Support staff. In 2025, the school was home to 26 classes. The specialist curriculum offerings included Physical Education, Visual and Performing Arts, Science, Kitchen Garden, and Auslan (as the Language Other Than English). Each classroom, as well as specialist areas, were equipped with Apple TVs and iPads, facilitating the seamless integration of eLearning within the curriculum rather than treating it as a standalone resource. School Facilities also include a visual arts and music rooms, and library. The Out of School Hours (OSH Club) program is situated in a single room in the main building with secure access for caregivers and operates both a before and after school program. All classrooms and learning spaces are well equipped and have heating and air conditioning. The school has extensive play spaces for the students including an external oval, synthetic turf athletic track and soccer field, hard court areas, playgrounds and sandpits (Foundation, Year 1, Year 2, 3/4 and 5/6) and a double basketball court. The well landscaped, maintained and resourced grounds provide a most attractive school environment well suited to recreation, developmental play and outdoor learning and leadership.

Range 3 is distinguished by the introduction of management responsibility and accountability for the delivery of professional support services. The role will usually impact beyond the work area or professional field. It seeks to gain cooperation of other staff members or members of the school community to achieve specific objectives, such as in school administration, operations or educational programs. Direction on targets and goals is provided but the position will have some degree of latitude in determining how they are achieved. This latitude will generally be limited by standard procedures and school policy. Deviation from standard procedures and school policy will require guidance and direction from senior management. The provision of business management responsibilities becomes a feature at range 3. Management of staff to achieve the expected outcomes is a key responsibility. Staff management issues will be resolved with minimal reference to senior management, although guidance will be required in more complex cases. Senior management will be provided with timely reports and advice, although this will generally be confined to matters relating to the immediate work area, service provision or educational program and is unlikely to impact substantially on whole of school operations. This is the minimum range for positions that carry a mandatory qualification requirement of not less than four years. Professional student support positions become a feature at range 3 (e.g. therapists, psychologists) where standard professional services are delivered. Professional support and guidance will be close at hand and deviation from standard procedures and school policy will require guidance and direction from senior management.
