The community of Greenvale has long-awaited its own a secondary school and is eager for it to be a success story: the secondary school of choice for local families and a school of which all in the community can be proud. The future of education for Greenvale is now here and students will be prepared for, and encouraged to dream, believe, and achieve.
Staff who work in our school will be welcomed into a high supportive staff culture that also has high expectations for ourselves. This is balanced with remote and flexible working opportunities and professional learning for all staff.
Our school opened in 2022 with brand new facilities and is growing steadily. In 2025, the College has Year 7 - 10 student cohorts. We will add a year level every year following. In 2025, the College adds the Year 11 cohort and our senior secondary options to ensure all students have excellent opportunities and outcomes after their schooling.
At Greenvale Secondary College, we have a thoroughly documented curriculum that focuses on the use of developmental rubrics and promoting learning growth for all students. This approach is paired with our Instructional Model and Positive Learning Framework that ensures we focus on supporting individual students wherever they are at in their learning and social development, to ensure our students can feel successful and challenged to be their best.
Our school vision, mission and values were developed in partnership with the community and are:
Vision:
We stay at the forefront of education to encourage the development of the whole student, providing them with the knowledge, skills and confidence to succeed and become lifelong learners who are generous, active and informed citizens.
Mission:
We are on a mission to provide the best education we can for our students by partnering with our community and fostering the natural care and passion our staff have to make a difference.
Values:
Excellence: We relentlessly pursue excellence and achieve our best
Leadership: We support and influence others to achieve more than they thought possible
Respect: We respect others for who they are and value their opinions
Teamwork: We work together to achieve our goals through trust and mutual support
SC1 Demonstrated ability to maintain buildings and grounds, including the ability to follow all policies and procedures (including OH&S) and manage risk within the work environment
SC2 Demonstrated ability to contribute to strategic decision-making by providing accurate and timely advice, reporting, and recommendations to the Business Manager, Principal Team, School Leadership, and School Council in relation to asset management and school infrastructure planning.
SC3 Demonstrated capacity to work collaboratively within a team environment and communicate effectively with a wide range of internal and external stakeholders, including contractors, DET departments, and school community members, to ensure the effective operation and maintenance of school facilities.
SC4 Proven organisational and time management skills, with the ability to independently manage completing work priorities and deliver accurate, timely, and high-quality administrative and operational support in a dynamic school environment.
SC5 A demonstrated commitment to continuous improvement, professional learning, and the development of systems and practices that enhance operational efficiency and compliance.
The role of the Facilities Manager provides support to the Business Manager and is responsible for co-ordinating the facilities and maintenance function across the school, overseeing day-to-day facilities and asset management activities.
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 employees position or involves supervision of students individually or in small groups, in controlled circumstances, where the responsibility for students remains clearly with a teacher.
