The Navigator Program is a targeted education support service whereby case managers work with young people, their families, and schools, to enable them to achieve their educational goals. It is a support service rather than a teaching service.
The young person is assigned a case manager and they work together in a place that suits the young person – at home, at school or at a café.
Case managers help to identify and utilise the young person’s strengths and skills to make school a more positive experience.
They provide coaching and mentoring to enhance the young person’s wellbeing and develop resilience, self-efficacy, and social skills.
Case managers work with the young person, their family, carers, and school to reduce or remove the barriers that prohibit school attendance.
Once the young person is back attending school, they are monitored to ensure sustained engagement.
We are currently looking for experienced case managers, with expertise supporting disengaged children and their families, to work with our Navigator program - an innovative, research-informed program that assists disengaged learners to re-connect back into education and learning.
You will primarily be working with children who have disconnected from school. You will help these children identify their skills & interests and alleviate barriers to their participation in education alongside their parents/carers. You will work collaboratively within a multi-disciplinary team, comprising of a Team Leader, Intake and Assessment Workers, Senior Case Managers and other youth services programs.
