Responsibilities

In preparation for the autumn term, we are looking for a new special needs educator (specialpedagog), linked to the Economics Programme and the Sales and Service Programme. As a special needs educator at Hvitfeldtska Gymnasium, you are expected to work promotively, preventively, and remedially from a broad student health perspective at the group, individual, and organizational levels. The work is varied and requires you to build trusting relationships with the students and be present in their learning environment and school day. The position also involves contributing to the school's programme-specific development projects.

In this role, you are a qualified advisor and supervisor to our teachers regarding pedagogical matters. You are responsible for investigations, drawing up, implementing, and following up on action plans in consultation with the principal.

You are part of the school's student health team and are expected to be driving forces in our joint work together with the school's other professions. Within the framework of your position, there is also room for regular collegial meetings focusing on competence development and experience sharing based on your profession.

To thrive in the role, you see opportunities rather than obstacles and are motivated by giving our students the tools they need to succeed in an academically ambitious environment.

You have previous experience from upper secondary school as well as education and/or experience within the area of neuropsychiatric functional variations (NPF).

Your pedagogical approach and social skills make it easy for you to create trust and maintain good relationships. You are skilled at translating your knowledge into practical work with students, supervising staff, and working with special support.

You have very good collaboration skills and enjoy working in a team close to both student health personnel and the school's management. You have the ability to work in a structured and organized manner and can handle several parallel issues without losing focus.

You have a genuine commitment to the development and learning of young people, as well as a firm anchoring in the school's value base. Great importance will be attached to personal suitability.
