Description

The vision of the Education and Learning sector is "Everyone shall succeed", which should guide all our areas of operation and characterize our way of working.

In preschool, we have chosen to formulate this as "A preschool where everyone has the right to become their best self".

The children in Kungälv Municipality's preschools receive a playful and joyful education based on democratic values. We challenge the children and lay the foundation for lifelong learning in a safe and stimulating environment.

We are looking for someone who is confident in their professional role and has a focus on the children. You see opportunities, are curious and creative, and strive for high quality in your work. You can work both independently and in a team, are responsible and can take your own initiatives, and have a good structure in your work. You enjoy being challenged, thinking outside the box, discussing, reflecting, and developing together with your colleagues. You collaborate for a good work environment. You create security and have an easy time communicating with children, guardians, and colleagues.
