Vacant job

Dormsjöskolan is a small school with fantastic conditions. Here, about twenty students from different parts of the country live and study, mainly residing in our adjacent HVB home. It also happens that students travel to and from school daily from nearby homes. We conduct teaching in small groups within three school forms: primary school, adapted primary school, and adapted upper secondary school. The students at our school often have one or more diagnoses within the NPF spectrum, which we address with an individualized teaching approach that few other schools offer. The school has a very high staff density, and we work in small groups or with individual teaching in a school environment adapted to the students' needs.

Dormsjöskolan is located in a picturesque spot by a lake, a short distance from Garpenberg. The school is owned by a non-profit foundation that has been present at the site for over 60 years. We are well-equipped with our own sports hall, forge, music room, auditorium, gym, and a brand new home economics classroom.

But it is the less visible conditions that truly constitute the school's strength. Here, every student meets the security and structure they need. Each student is seen by staff they can trust and has the opportunity to develop at their own pace.

You will work as a teacher in textile crafts/wood and metal crafts as well as home and consumer studies. You will be part of a team with diverse backgrounds and qualifications but with a common goal: care for our students. We have close contacts with each other through daily morning meetings and short communication channels. Since we are a very staff-dense school, you need to be comfortable with other staff being present during your teaching. As staff, you also have close contact with the personnel at the five associated HVB homes located on the premises.

We are looking for you who are a certified teacher within primary education.

You have experience working in primary school and hold a teaching certification. If you are educated in other subjects, it is an advantage. You should be confident in building relationships with students, guardians, and colleagues. You have the ability to work independently and goal-oriented. We would like you to have experience working with children in need of special support. Your interest in discovering and developing the child's inner abilities, as well as your insight into how your approach affects the relationship with each student, are important qualities. Dormsjöskolan actively works with low-arousal responses, and you need to be prepared to follow these principles in your relationships with the students.

Great emphasis is placed on personal suitability.

Seize the opportunity and get in touch! We at Dormsjöskolan look forward to your application.
