Kunskapsskolan Borås is seeking a certified teacher to teach grades 4-6. Priority is given to qualifications in mathematics, Swedish, and English, while qualifications in Social Studies (SO) or Natural Sciences (NO) are also advantageous.

Do you want to work in a school where every student receives something unique – a personalized education – based on their individual goals and prerequisites? Then we have the job for you!

At Kunskapsskolan, we have a pedagogy that is personally tailored and focused on the individual. Through our approach, we create close relationships between teachers and students, which provides the conditions for every student to achieve further than they themselves believe possible. In an environment where the student can be themselves and receives the right support and challenges, we create a school where both students and staff thrive and develop.

Kunskapsskolan Borås is a primary school for students from preschool class to grade 9. The school is divided into two buildings, one for preschool class to grade 3 and one for grades 4-9, with approximately 190 and 500 students respectively. The school started in 2008 and is located on the regiment area in Borås. At our school, we have happy students who thrive and achieve good academic results.

To ensure every student reaches as far as possible, we need professional teachers with a strong commitment to the student. At Kunskapsskolan, we always put the individual at the center, and we are therefore looking for you who always work actively to ensure your students succeed. In addition to being a subject teacher, you are also a personal mentor to about twenty students, and you have an individual mentoring conversation with each of your students every week. You help them plan and set goals for their studies and follow up on these goals together with both the students and their guardians.

At Kunskapsskolan, we have a pronounced team spirit. You are never alone with challenges and questions. We help each other plan work in working groups and subject groups. The openness between teachers is great, and we share a common responsibility for our students.

To facilitate your work and enable you to focus your time on the students, we have gathered a large part of our resources on our digital web portal, Kunskapsporten. For each subject, there are suggestions for working methods and tasks linked to the teaching materials we use.
