The school is located in Hjällbo, close to a natural area and five minutes from the Hjällbo tram stop. The school has two parallel classes in primary education. About 70 students belong to the adapted primary school for grades 1-6, distributed across 13 classes. The adapted primary school has three after-school departments.

In the role of lead teacher, you will primarily work in teaching. In addition, you will work on school development tasks identified in the school's systematic quality work. The core of the systematic quality work is the students' learning and goal fulfillment, so the work as a lead teacher is primarily focused on developing teaching together with other teachers at the school to enhance student learning.

Based on the areas identified in the school's systematic quality work, you will work together with the school's teachers and management team. In a collegial learning environment, you have a central and important role by guiding and coaching, as well as contributing knowledge about research and proven experience.

A more detailed assignment will be formulated in consultation between the lead teacher and the school principal. This will include the conditions for and content of the assignment, as well as the timing for review and possible revision.

• be assessed by the principal as particularly qualified for teaching and tasks related to teaching.
• be a teacher with four years of certified teaching experience.
• be able to document at least four years of well-regarded work within the school system.
• have a good ability to drive school development based on the school's systematic quality work.
• have developed analytical skills.
• have the ability to be a driving force in a collaborative culture.
• have a good ability to lead others in collegial learning at both local and overarching levels.

To succeed in your role, it is important that you have a good ability to create conditions for learning to occur, both for students and colleagues.

You have the ability to explain problems and information to different audiences and from different perspectives. You encourage dialogue, participation, and engagement. You stay updated through environmental monitoring and regularly reflect on what needs to be developed in your operation.

You can overview your own area of responsibility and place the significance of your own operation in a larger context. You can effectively identify and analyze the core of a problem and suggest possible solutions. You have the ability to see connections and can draw logical conclusions from limited and/or complex information.

Warm welcome with your application!
