Job Advertisement: Certified Teacher at Knappekullaskolan

Lerum Municipality is known for its scenic locations with lakes and forests. The municipality has 3,200 employees and 43,000 residents but expects to grow significantly in the coming years. Lerum is only a 20-minute commute from Gothenburg and is currently facing a development-intensive period with many exciting projects underway, ranging from schools to housing. The municipality works to ensure both good service, high welfare, and a flourishing business climate.

Knappekullaskolan is centrally located in Lerum, close to public transport. Interest in the school is high, the number of students is increasing, and we currently have about 500 students in grades F-5 and an integrated Adapted Primary School. We have a very good collaboration with guardians, a good reputation, and high application pressure. In recent years, we have actively worked on learning environments (physical, social, and pedagogical) as well as classroom leadership. Our goal is for the students at our school to reach as far as possible based on their conditions. At our school, we have a high degree of certified and qualified teachers. The main task of the work team is to create a whole around the student and work for accessible learning environments and a clear and relational leadership based on current governing documents.

We are in the process of building a new school that will include grades F-9. Our new school is expected to be completed within a couple of years.

JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

We are looking for someone who takes great responsibility for developing in their profession and sees their work as an opportunity to contribute to maximum learning for students, themselves, and their colleagues. You have the ability to see students' different needs, take into account their individual conditions, and have an inclusive approach. In your role, you are responsible for ensuring that every student succeeds based on their conditions and that all students are met with high expectations. The work is characterized by low-affect responses and clarifying pedagogy.

You will be responsible for about 27 students in a primary class where you plan, implement, and evaluate the after-school activities. The after-school program includes students from three classes in the same grade, and during after-school hours, you collaborate with two other teachers in the after-school program. You also work part of your time in the classroom during school hours and have a close collaboration with the class teacher.

QUALIFICATIONS

We are looking for a certified teacher with qualifications in after-school care.

You are well-versed in the school's governing documents and work with them in a natural way. You have an inclusive perspective and the ability to see how the individual student's needs can best be met. You view development work as a natural part of the teaching job and want to collaborate with the school's other educators. You are goal- and results-oriented, have good leadership skills, and have a holistic view. Through a conscious approach, you create safety, trust, and good relationships. You have the ability to be a qualified conversation partner in pedagogical matters for colleagues, parents, and other stakeholders. You are creative and stimulated by challenges, flexible, and easy to collaborate with.

As digital tools are an important part of our operations, you need to be familiar with ICT. We place great emphasis on personal suitability, especially regarding approach, low-affect responses, and collaboration skills. Previous experience with students with diabetes is an advantage. With your application, we would like a resume that outlines your teaching qualifications and previous experiences.

Interviews will be conducted on an ongoing basis. Start date 250804 or by agreement.
