Position Information

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 Barrenjoey High 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.

Barrenjoey High School is a proud comprehensive school with strong connections to its local community. The school values creative excellence, academic achievement and social awareness, offering diverse opportunities that celebrate student success across many areas. Strong partnerships between students, parents, staff, local schools and the wider community underpin the school’s commitment to building positive relationships.
Through its School Excellence Plan (2022–202, the school is committed to continually improving classroom practice through high-impact professional learning. A portion of equity funding supports initiatives focused on enhancing literacy and numeracy outcomes through improved data collection, analysis and differentiated teaching practices. The school also maintains a strategic focus on improving NAPLAN and Higher School Certificate performance through targeted support programs to enhance student achievement and success in their learning. For more information, please visit the school website Barrenjoey High School.

Selection Criteria

Experience in counselling using evidence-based interventions with a demonstrated understanding of the mental health needs of children and young people.
Experience in the psychological assessment of children and young people, including case formulation and report writing.
Demonstrated ability to collaborate with key stakeholders to improve the learning and wellbeing outcomes of children and young people including students from diverse backgrounds and needs.

Conditions

Be a registered or provisionally registered psychologist, or eligible for registration with the Psychology Board of Australia.
