About us

Magelungen's resource school in Gävle caters to students who are in extensive need of special support and who require a smaller context to benefit from education. The educational environment is thoughtfully designed and adapted based on the students' needs. The groups are small, the teacher density is high, and student health is enhanced to give students the opportunity to develop in their studies and feel successful. The school's staff is engaged and has experience working with students who, for various reasons, do not thrive in their previous home schools. We have a systemic and salutogenic perspective where the focus is on working with the whole and building on what works. Our goal is to provide a context where all students can have a chance to succeed based on their conditions.

About the position

As a teacher at Magelungen, you actively work in the school environment alongside your teaching assignment, responsible for teaching, coaching, and mentorship. The focus is on strengthening, affirming, and supporting students both in the classroom and outside of it. You work closely with school management, other educators, student health, and treatment coordinators (social workers and behavioral scientists) by starting from the students' competencies, strengths, and resources and utilizing these to practice what is difficult.

Qualifications

We are looking for a certified teacher for primary school with qualifications in Home Economics.

You work well with others and relate to them in a responsive and smooth manner. You find it motivating to work with school development, special education issues, new research, and are open to thinking outside the box.
