Stockholm – our capital city with millions of dreams

Stockholm – our capital city with millions of dreams, expectations, and ambitions. We work for everyone living here today and in the future. We are now looking for you who want to think big, new, and differently with us – for the people of Stockholm.

Welcome to us

Västertorpsskolan is a F-6 school with approximately 460 students.

From the autumn term of 2025, the school will start a Central Special Education Group, CSU, for 24 students. The school is a multicultural school close to a beautiful environment and the city of Stockholm. We are looking for someone who wants to help start a program for students who need extra support to succeed socially and academically. At the school, we work with a value foundation summarized under the concept HEARTS (Health, Empathy, Work Peace, Respect, Safety, and Cooperation).

We offer

We offer you the opportunity to help build a fantastic program for students who require that little extra. You will be involved in creating environments, programs, and building a team around the students to provide the best possible conditions for success. The city of Stockholm offers a generous wellness allowance, and we provide guidance and professional development at the school.

Your role

As a childcare worker in CSU, you are responsible for supporting students in their daily activities during school and leisure time.

  • You collaborate with the teacher and assist students and teachers with schoolwork.
  • You plan and implement leisure activities together with other childcare workers and teachers for the after-school program.
  • You work with the student’s entire school day and aim to prevent and promote the student’s well-being.
  • You build relationships with both the student and their guardians.

Your qualifications and experience

  • You should be a qualified childcare worker with documented experience.
  • You should have experience working with students in special education or adapted primary school.
  • You should be flexible and solution-oriented as the students’ daily condition influences how the day unfolds. Therefore, you need to be creative and focused on finding solutions together with the team and the student.
  • You should be highly stress-resistant.
  • You should excel in building relationships with both the student and their guardians.

It is advantageous if you have knowledge of the TEACCH communication method. You need to have excellent Swedish in both spoken and written forms to avoid communication errors with students.

You should be a clear leader while being adaptable to the students’ behaviors and needs. It is extremely important that you enjoy working in a team and are a team member who is loyal to decisions made in the team for the development work around the students.

It is crucial that you are committed to helping the student succeed both socially and academically.

The city of Stockholm works with competency-based recruitment aimed at recognizing each person's skills and thereby combating discrimination.
