SOUTH EASTERN VICTORIA REGION (SEVR) WELCOME FROM ACTING REGIONAL DIRECTOR, ANGELA SINGH

Welcome to the South Eastern Victoria Region (SEVR) in Schools and Regional Services (SRS). As a member of the SEVR workforce, you will play a critical role in supporting our schools and early childhood services to deliver quality education and improved learning outcomes for children and young people and help make Victoria the Education State. SEVR includes a School Improvement Division, Early Childhood and School Support Division, and Regional Operations and Service Delivery Division, along with four Area Divisions (Southern Melbourne, Bayside

Peninsula, Inner Gippsland and Outer Gippsland). The region has over 400 government schools and over 700 services delivering a kindergarten program. Angela Singh Acting Regional Director South Eastern Victoria Region

SECTION 1: REGIONAL INDUCTION ABOUT The SEVR provides an interface between the Schools Regional Services (SRS) central divisions and our schools and service providers, ensuring that learners move seamlessly through our education system and that improved outcomes for all Victorians and ambitious targets are realised. We are one of four regions across the state with two divisions and four Areas in locations across the southeast of Victoria. With around 523.1 FTE in our “establishment” we have professionals working in our divisions and multi-disciplinary Area teams, we lead a place-based approach to service delivery and are responsible for managing this delivery through our schools and early childhood providers in local communities right across the SEVR.

The regional model Learning Places: Partnering for Better Outcomes is the regional operating model. With a focus on people and place, Learning Places supports our regions to:

• connect between central government policy and the delivery of high-quality services to Victorians

• drive outcomes across all stages of learning through expert advice and support

• connect with families, service providers, schools and communities

• lead, collaborate and partner at a local level to overcome social and economic challenges facing our communities, towns and cities

• deliver health, wellbeing and support services to children, young people and their families to assist them in their learning and development

• improve connectedness and transitions between important points in a child’s life - such as between early childhood, kindergarten, school and tertiary education

• assist and support children and young people who are vulnerable, disengaged, and those with disabilities or challenging behaviour.

• enable complex issues to be addressed through more targeted, integrated and coordinated responses.

Regional responsibilities The Department is responsible for delivering state-wide learning and development services to at least one-third of Victorians every year across the early childhood, school education and higher education and skills sectors. In regions, we support children, young people and their families through early childhood and school education working with services and schools to ensure the best outcomes. Learning Places supports a place-based approach by placing Areas at its core. This ensures a deeper understanding of the characteristics, trends and issues of our community, and the operating context of each school and early childhood service. It requires a highly matrixed, collaborative way of working. The development of the RACI model has been an iterative process, based on annual consultation and feedback from regions and central, to support the full implementation of the regional operating model. The RACI model is a straightforward tool used for identifying roles and responsibilities and avoiding confusion over those roles and responsibilities.
