About the workplace

Himlaskolan is located in Alafors, close to forests, nature, and countryside.

The school is also adjacent to the discovery site of the Äskekärr ship and Alebacken. The school has about 200 students and 20 employees. At Himlaskolan, we work in two teams; F-6 and after-school care. The school has a student health team consisting of the principal, assistant principals, school psychologist, school social worker, school nurse, special education teacher, and special pedagogues. The entire team meets regularly one afternoon a week with a focus on promoting and preventive work.

Himlaskolan is a small and family-like school and workplace. We work closely with our students to create a safe environment with good study conditions. We emphasize the value of being unique and the importance of treating everyone with respect and empathy. Teaching is characterized by joy and engagement from both students and staff. Physical activity is a significant part of the teaching, and with the forest as a neighbor, it becomes natural for some of the activities to take place outdoors in nature. The after-school care has its own large facilities where we can create different learning environments for the students. All staff working in after-school care meet weekly for joint planning and reflection.
