A day as a preschool teacher at Dungen

In our municipality, you start from the children's interests, needs, and experiences. You plan the learning processes and, with a formative approach, implement, follow up, and evaluate the teaching, anchored in the curriculum. The children's learning is made visible both in the form of digital pedagogical documentation using iPads as tools and analogously in our learning environments. In your role as a preschool teacher, you, together with the rest of the team, are responsible for planning and conducting the activities and meeting the needs of each individual child. Documentation is an important part of our daily reflections and also in the systematic quality work that moves the organization forward and makes learning visible. The systematic quality work includes preventive and promoting child health work in collaboration with our child health teams. The values work is also an obvious part of the systematic quality work and is made visible in our Plan for Discrimination and Harassment.

You collaborate with preschools in the area and actively and purposefully work for a well-balanced and developing operation according to governing documents.

The units in Krokom municipality have a joint systematic work environment effort based on the municipality's core values: Welcoming, Courageous, Close, and Reliable.
