Selection Criteria
SC1. Demonstrated experience providing high-level administrative support in a busy school or wellbeing environment.
SC2. Demonstrated capacity to effectively coordinate the administrative demands associated with the role of Daily Organiser, including staff absences, timetabling adjustments, and scheduling changes.
SC3. Well-developed organisational and planning skills, including the ability to prioritise tasks, establish and maintain efficient systems and procedures, and ensure accuracy and attention to detail in all work areas.

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.
The Wellbeing Administration Assistant / Daily Organiser plays a vital role in supporting the efficient operation of the Wellbeing Team and operations at Wyndham Park Primary School.

Effectively communicating staff or timetable changes daily
Internal school-based support documents (e.g. Behaviour Support Plans, Learning and Play Plans)
Meeting Coordination

NDIS and Allied Health Liaison
Manage communication and scheduling with NDIS providers and external allied health professionals. This includes overseeing email correspondence and ensuring appointments are clearly communicated to staff and families.
This position does not follow normal school hours and it is expected that work will be conducted daily outside of hours before and or after the school day.
It should be noted that these responsibilities, although detailed, may vary at the discretion of the principal.
