A Job with Room for Responsibility and Community

Do you want to be part of the resource track's operations, where we focus on the best interests of the students, where teachers and teaching assistants work closely together and are part of the entire Ås school community? Then this is the job for you.

As a teaching assistant in the resource track, you will work closely with the teaching staff and provide support to the students throughout the day.

Welcome to us! The Department of Education has about 800 employees. The department's operations extend across the entire municipality and include preschool, primary school F-9, adapted primary school, after-school care, nutrition and cleaning services, mother tongue education, and library services.

In the resource track located at Ås school, we welcome students with autism from across the municipality who require a highly adapted study environment. We work together, teachers and teaching assistants, to meet the students' needs.

Ås school has approximately 500 students. The qualifications are high in both the school and after-school care, and there is a high level of employee engagement that permeates the operations. We work closely together to create holistic solutions for the students.

A Day as a Teaching Assistant in the Resource Track

As a teaching assistant in the resource track, you are flexible and can find new solutions. You are self-sufficient and confident in your leadership and have experience working with students with NPF (neuropsychiatric disorders). You have a willingness to collaborate with other educators, student health teams, and guardians. This is particularly important as our students need holistic support in their daily lives, and we see lifelong learning as our mission.

As a teaching assistant, you will also follow the students during their time in after-school care. Collaboration with other staff and the home is essential to ensure that students have the opportunity to develop as far as possible. You are part of the resource track team, but collaboration with other staff at the school is a given for us, as the students in the resource track should be given opportunities to interact with other students to the extent they can.

Your Competence

For the position, you must be a qualified teaching assistant.

You have the empathetic ability to understand the students' needs and meet them where they are, as well as to listen, encourage, stimulate, and challenge them to develop further.

To thrive in the role, you see the team as a resource, and it is natural for you to contribute positively to solving common tasks.

Previous experience working with students with autism is an advantage.
