About the Role
Full Time: 1.0 FTE (Full time equivalent)

This is a truly collegiate role offering unique challenges and opportunities - both in your professional development and your ability to make an impact on the lives of children and young people.

The successful candidate will be based at Richmond River High Campus and provided with opportunities to work across the lifespan with both primary and high school aged students. Working in a NSW public school will enable you to engage with a diversity of students (and school communities) like no other child and adolescent psychologist role can. This is a chance to use your skills to make a real difference in the lives of children and young people at a time in their lives when it matters most.

School psychologists receive individual professional supervision with the Senior Psychologist Education and participate in group and peer supervision as a member of the broader school counselling team. You will most likely be collaborating with a number of school communities and colleagues, as well as outside agencies, with the opportunity to use and expand the full range of your skills and expertise as part of a supportive, multidisciplinary team.

School psychologists are provided with opportunities to participate in continuing professional development and the NSW Department of Education will support you to complete or maintain your registration with the Psychology Board of Australia. Other benefits include access to a range of leave types, including recreation leave and flex leave, as well as leave loading, travel allowances and health and wellbeing benefits such as our Fitness Passport program. The department will also cover your indemnity insurance as a psychologist while working in our schools.

Richmond River High Campus, situated in the township of Lismore, is a medium-sized comprehensive public high school serving a diverse community. Our student population reflects a unique blend of rural and urban families, a range of socioeconomic backgrounds, varied household compositions, and diverse lifestyles and identities. First Nations cultures make up a significant portion of our students. In recent years, enrolment numbers have stabilised following demographic changes in the local area. The school and community were profoundly affected by a devastating flood, the effects of which continue to be felt. We are dedicated to ongoing improvement in quality teaching and learning, aiming to create a learning environment where every student feels valued and supported to achieve growth and success both during their schooling and in their future pathways. Enhancing staff capabilities in data literacy and application is a key focus, as this will guide our teaching programs and targeted interventions. Our school culture prioritises strong, respectful relationships between staff, students, and the community, underpinned by high expectations, which supports wellbeing and boosts student engagement.

School counsellors are an essential part of the department's School Counselling Service .
They provide counselling and psychological assessment of students to complement and enhance the work of teachers to strengthen student learning and wellbeing outcomes, and they help families understand and manage their children's learning and mental health needs. This is a truly collegiate role offering unique challenges and opportunities - both in your professional development and your ability to make an impact on the lives of children and young people.
The successful candidate will be based at Narrabri West Public School and provided with opportunities to work across the lifespan with both primary and high school aged students. Working as a school counsellor in a NSW public school will enable you to engage with a diversity of students (and school communities) like no other child and adolescent psychologist role can. This is a chance to use your skills to make a real difference in the lives of children and young people at a time in their lives when it matters most.
School counsellors receive regular, individual professional supervision with the Senior Psychologist Education and participate in group and peer supervision as a member of the broader district school counselling team. You will most likely be collaborating with a number of school communities and colleagues, as well as outside agencies, with the opportunity to use and expand the full range of your skills and expertise as part of a supportive, multidisciplinary team.
School counsellors are provided with regular opportunities to participate in continuing professional development and the NSW Department of Education will support you to complete or maintain your registration with the Psychology Board of Australia. Other benefits include school holiday leave, travel allowances and health and wellbeing benefits such as our Fitness Passport program. The department will also cover your indemnity insurance as a psychologist.
