Vacant job

We are now looking for more substitutes at Hyddans adapted school in Taberg! We are seeking teaching assistants/support pedagogues/resource pedagogues for on-call work as needed.

At Nytida, we are in constant development. With us, you can grow as a person while making a difference for others. Our culture is permeated by our values – respect, responsibility, simplicity, and knowledge.

Your role In your role as a teaching assistant, you help create a safe foundation for our students who need extraordinary support as well as specially designed pedagogy and social training. Together with the teacher, you plan and structure the school day based on tailored pedagogy that provides predictability and security. You are present as support by the students' side throughout the school day, in lessons, and during breaks. An important part of the work is to stimulate and motivate students to develop their abilities and create opportunities for learning.

About Hyddans school

Hyddans school is an adapted primary and secondary school (formerly special school) located in a rural area just outside Jönköping. With us, you will find a fantastic team with strong community and high competence for our very exciting target group. The school currently has 11 students aged 7-21 years and a high staff density. The school is close to nature, near services, and public transport with good connections to Jönköping.

The students at Hyddan have diagnoses of intellectual disabilities (moderate/severe) combined with autism (level 3 or 2), which means that the students have extensive needs for support in all aspects of the day. Most of the students also have a language impairment and often exhibit challenging behaviors. These can include aggressive behaviors, hyperactivity, and self-harming behaviors. We operate on the premise that everyone has a personal pedagogical design.

Many of our students reside within Nytida, which means we have a close collaboration with Nytida's children's and youth accommodations where everyone is focused on the individual. Several of our students have had a difficult school experience in the past, and turning that experience into something positive is incredibly important and motivating for us. We focus on strengths, interests, and dreams to ensure that each student feels a desire and motivation for learning.

Your experience and knowledge We assume that you who are applying to us: • have a positive outlook and a strong commitment to people • are responsible and have personal maturity • enjoy working in a team and supporting your colleagues

You have at least a high school education in childcare/child and leisure or another education deemed equivalent. It is an advantage if you have experience working with the target group, students with neuropsychiatric disabilities and/or intellectual disabilities.

You need to have very good knowledge of Swedish both in writing and speaking, this is very important so if you do not meet this criterion, we ask you not to apply for this position. Since the oldest students at the school can be around 20-21 years old, it is an advantage if you are older than them.

As an on-call substitute with us, you must be prepared to be available early in the morning and be able to step in and work at short notice - if this is not for you, we ask you not to apply for this position.

Instead of a regular interview, we have the routine that substitutes come to the school and visit for a few hours, and then we decide if you proceed to trial work/shadowing. Such a visit can take place alone or in a group with other applicants.

If you are called for a visit to the school, you need to be able to prove that you have the right to work in Sweden by showing that you have citizenship within the EU/EES or a valid work permit.
