​​​

Guidance officers (GOs) contribute to the development of a comprehensive student support and wellbeing program, which is responsive to the needs of the school community.

Support provided by guidance officers includes advice and counselling on educational, behavioural, personal, social, family, and mental health and wellbeing issues.

Psychoeducational assessments also form an important part of the work GOs undertake to enhance positive educational outcomes and career pathways for all students.

In addition, GOs are able to provide training and support to staff in order to build their understanding and capability about how best to support students' mental health and wellbeing.

Guidance officers provide leadership, support and case management in responding to some of the most complex and challenging of circumstances, including student protection matters, critical incidents, mental health issues, and suicide prevention and postvention support.
