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.
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.

Kiewa Valley Primary School is a rural, community school with a student population of 140 students. We are located in the township of Tangambalanga in the beautiful Kiewa Valley, but still only 24km from Albury/Wodonga. Approximately forty percent of our students travel to school by bus from nearby communities such as Kergunyah, Gundowring, Charleroi, Huon, Kiewa and Allans Flat. We serve a wide range of different communities, who share our school as a common link to one another.
Within our school grounds we also have an Early Learning Centre which incorporates both Child Maternal Health (managed by Indigo Shire), and the Kindergarten. This makes for a smooth and successful transition for students and families as they move from one area to another, giving the Kindergarten students the use of school facilities when required.
Our school community is predominantly low non English speaking and mid to high socio-economic status. In 2026 we have a six grade structure. Auslan, Science, Performing Arts, Visual Art, and Physical Education are specialist areas of the curriculum which support and connect to our classroom programs.
In 2027 we will continue to work on the full implementation of the VTLM 2.0 with a continued focus on reading, writing and mathematics. Our staff are both passionate and collaborative in their work.
Our school community is built on positive relationships. It is the relationships that exist between individuals and groups within and beyond the school which are seen as being of vital importance. Along with relationships, the education, safety and wellbeing of each child is highly valued by all members of our school community.
We teach emotional intelligence with a focus on embedding our values as virtues. These values nurture and guide our everyday interactions. The golden rule of ¿Treating people the way you wish,¿ to be treated underpins the culture of our school along with being kind and grateful. The hope is that our values will become the cornerstones of our school culture and become lived and embedded.
Our vision at Kiewa Valley Primary School is ¿Our community grows together through kindness as empowered, creative learners who believe we can all make a difference.
At Kiewa Valley Primary School our values are:
Respect
Kindness
Inclusion
Integrity
We believe that in order to learn and grow students need an environment which is happy, caring, safe and secure. All members of our community are charged with the responsibility of ensuring that our environment is safe and secure. As a school, we have no tolerance for bullying of any form. Students are encouraged to use the relationships which exist with adults in our school to seek out assistance when in challenging situations. We also explore the growing issue of Cyber Bullying with our students and will continue to revisit this issue over time.
There is a deep commitment to the nurturing and development of our students as individuals and to fostering their individuality. Personal achievement and striving to succeed in all aspects of school are valued and supported. All students are encouraged to take on responsibilities within the school and to develop a social conscience. We now conduct SRC¿s across our whole school. We actively work with our students to develop their decision making, problem solving and critical thinking skills and their voice and agency in learning and wellbeing. It is through these approaches that we aim to develop students who will go on into their future to become fully engaged, active citizens of our society.
