Adapted School in Ulricehamn

The Adapted School in Ulricehamn Municipality, part of the Tingsholm school district, offers education to students with intellectual disabilities, carefully tailored to each student's individual prerequisites – from primary school to upper secondary and adult levels. The operations are based on the same structure as primary school while covering special subject areas that promote students' motor skills, communication, daily activities, aesthetic development, and understanding of reality. Here, every student has the opportunity to develop in a secure learning environment where participation, learning, and hope for the future are central.

We are now looking for an engaged, proactive, and skilled employee who, together with us, wants to continue developing tomorrow's adapted school. You will be an important part of creating a secure, developmental, and inclusive everyday life for our students. We welcome your application!
