Job Advertisement: Teacher in After-School Care

We are Varberg Municipality, the employer who sees the possibilities in you. Here you can make a difference, both for others and for yourself. We are driven by the idea of simplifying people's everyday lives and realizing their dreams. We do this with the help of knowledge, innovative courage, and a forward-thinking spirit. Welcome to contribute to our work towards our vision – to become the creative center of the west coast.

Lindbergs School is a rural school located north of Varberg, about a 15-minute drive from the center. Here, students have the opportunity to spend their primary school years from preschool class to grade 9 in a peaceful environment characterized by safety.

The school has about 400 students, and at the after-school care, 150 students start and finish their school day. The after-school care has started a process this spring to create natural meetings across grade boundaries where students can support each other in various learning activities.

• With us, you will help develop the after-school care into a place where we want all students to have the opportunity to grow in their learning, based on interests and abilities, but also to feel the impact of good social relationships.
• We are proud of the values education that students practice during their school day, which gives them tools to learn together what it means to grow as a person.
• We place extra focus on ensuring that students feel safe and seen throughout their school day.
• It is important for us to have the courage to dare together with students, as we see that it is a prerequisite for all learning.

We are now embarking on a knowledge journey where we explore which pedagogical elements we want Lindbergs after-school care to be characterized by. You now have the opportunity to influence and create this together with us!
