We are now looking for a secure and clear teacher who wants to teach Swedish and Spanish. With us, we work together to create a good working environment and the best conditions for our students' learning. Welcome to us at Arenaskolan!

Your responsibilities

Your starting point as a teacher is to work with planning, teaching, evaluation, and value-based work according to the curriculum. The work is done both independently and in collaboration with colleagues.

As a teacher in grades 7-9, you collaborate with guardians, colleagues, and others present in the school to achieve a higher level of goal fulfillment and create the best conditions for each student. You start from the student group you meet and are expected to create varied and challenging teaching. Using digital tools is a natural part of your teaching.

You promote collegial learning through discussion and reflection during both planned and spontaneous occasions. To benefit students' learning, as well as your own and the development of the organization, you take advantage of the experiences and knowledge of various professions.

This position involves teaching Swedish and Spanish in grades 7-9 as well as mentorship. You, together with a colleague, will be a mentor for a class. Mentorship is an important part of your assignment where you are expected to work closely with students to create functioning student groups and promote students' attendance.

Your workplace

Arenaskolan is a sports school located at Bilbörsen Arena. The school has profiles in football, hockey, figure skating, swimming, dance, and multi-sport orientation. Currently, approximately 550 students attend Arenaskolan, and we have about 80 employees.

The overarching goal of Arenaskolan is maximum learning, equity, enthusiasm, and engagement. We achieve this, among other things, by working together, systematically, and focused on ensuring that all students experience safety and study peace, which is the foundation for students to achieve maximum learning. We have a common and clear value base that all staff actively work with. We have clear and common rules and routines for the entire school so that students encounter clarity and predictability throughout the school day. For example, students have fixed seating in all classrooms, and we work with frequent follow-ups of our rules.

We strive to create a good working environment for our teachers. To allow teachers to focus on teaching and planning, there are support functions at the school that relieve other tasks, such as creating a pleasant atmosphere throughout the school day. As a teacher with us, you will be part of a subject team where you collaborate on teaching. As a new employee at Arenaskolan, we offer you an introduction to help you settle into your new workplace and feel welcome.
