Vacant job

Ljunghaga School is a small F–6 school located in a rural and very peaceful environment, where the proximity to nature permeates the entire operation. We work in small student groups, creating a warm and family-like atmosphere that provides good opportunities to see each student and build secure relationships.

The school's educational focus emphasizes creativity, variation, and a learning experience that sparks curiosity and joy. Here, students are encouraged to explore, try, and think for themselves — and as a teacher, you have the space to work practically, thematically, and imaginatively to stimulate their joy of discovery.

We primarily use analog methods, with digital tools being used sparingly and with clear purpose. The school's surroundings — forests, meadows, lakes, and farm environments — offer excellent opportunities for outdoor education and reality-based teaching.

The work team has close and continuous collaboration, with great emphasis placed on teamwork and a willingness to contribute to the whole. All adults at the school share a common responsibility to meet students' needs for belonging, security, and appreciation. Therefore, we are looking for someone who thrives in an environment where relationships, collaboration, and shared responsibility are central.

Job Responsibilities

• Teach according to the curriculum, course plans, and timetable
• Plan, implement, and follow up on teaching with a focus on analog methods
• Utilize the school's outdoor environment as a natural part of the teaching

• Adapt teaching for groups with mixed ages
• Be a mentor and participate in the school's joint development work

Qualifications

• Certified teacher with qualifications for grades F–6
• Experience teaching in groups with mixed ages is an advantage
• Experience with practical, varied, and student-centered approaches is an advantage
• Ability to work in a structured and relationship-building manner, as well as in close collaboration with colleagues and guardians

Personal Qualities

We are looking for someone who is secure, responsible, and has a clear interest in creative and analog teaching methods. You enjoy working on a smaller scale, close to nature, and value close collaboration within the team.

We Offer

• A rural and safe school environment with small student groups
