About Us

Strömsskolan is beautifully located on the western side of the river in a scenic area that invites "outdoor classrooms." We are a growing school with currently around 360 students, and we now need to expand our staff. We work in grade levels, which means that planning, conducting, analyzing, and evaluating teaching is done collectively within the grade level, with high flexibility to group students in different constellations based on needs for interest, support, or challenge.

Active work on "inclusion" is central to our school; all students should feel seen and have the opportunity to influence their school day. We also invest in "active breaks" to increase students' social interaction and provide opportunities for varied, physical activities during the school day.

Collaboration and teamwork, a "we-feeling" including all professions, are the guiding principles of our school, all with the student's best interest in mind.

Your Role

Through varied and stimulating teaching, combined with security and a conducive study environment, we at Strömsskolan aim to ensure that all our students reach their maximum individual capacity, in harmony with the group's development.

We are seeking two engaged and creative craft teachers with a focus on textile crafts and wood/metal crafts, respectively, for teaching in grades 3–6. You are welcome to have competence in other practical, aesthetic subjects in addition to crafts. With us, you are a very important part of our students' development, both practically, theoretically, and socially. From the autumn term of 2026, students from Ryrsjöskolan will also have their craft lessons at Strömsskolan.

As a craft teacher/practical aesthetic teacher, you will, among other things:

• Plan and conduct lessons
• Make assessments and assign grades
• Maintain premises and tools
• Be an active part of the municipality's craft teacher network (a few meetings per school year)

Strömsskolan has two craft rooms, one for each type of craft, all located in a small separate building on the schoolyard; the school library is also located in the same building. The working environment is inspiring, and you have great opportunities to influence teaching. You will work primarily in a grade-level team where daily work is done collectively. You are also part of a work team within grades 4–6, where the grade levels are represented and meet on a weekly basis.

We have a broad support organization through student health services that, together with the educators, will ensure that the right support and motivating teaching is provided to our students. Your closest colleague is the educator teaching wood and metal crafts; you will collaborate and jointly assess students' knowledge.

The most important component for achieving a successful, motivating, and challenging school experience for the students is professional educators. With our work at Strömsskolan, we want to give students the best possible conditions for further studies and provide them with the tools to act as democratic citizens in our society.
