JOB RESPONSIBILITIES

From the autumn term of 2021, the organization of our primary schools in Gothenburg City changed. We increased the number of leadership positions so that we can create sustainable school leadership teams with a principal and vice-principal. The new organization is intended to provide us with good conditions for creating an equitable school with high-quality teaching. In the new organization, we form school areas with one or more school units and common leadership teams. The leadership teams will give the schools the opportunity for increased collaboration and the possibility of becoming strong together.

In the Southwest 20, about 300 employees work. The management group consists of one principal and seven vice-principals. There are 4 administrators in the school area.
