You will continuously follow up and provide feedback on students' progress, identify the next steps in their development, and share your expertise to create conditions for students to succeed in larger contexts.

Collaboration is a central part of the work, both with students, colleagues, and guardians. Good and regular contact with home is crucial, as is close follow-up to promote students' development and well-being.

Your Qualifications

We are looking for a certified primary school teacher for grades 1-6, with qualifications to teach mathematics and Swedish. Previous experience working with students in small teaching groups is a plus. We also welcome candidates with knowledge and/or experience of students in need of special support.
