You want to make a difference and be part of shaping the future. With us, you will receive trust, development opportunities, and knowledgeable colleagues. We work together and are convinced that everyone wants and can learn.

About the Role

The Centre for Multilingual Learning (CFL) is a municipal joint school organization. We work based on the City of Borås' vision for preschool and school: Desire to learn - opportunity to succeed.

CFL is responsible for the reception and mapping of newly arrived students. We are also responsible for mother tongue instruction and study guidance, which are carried out at the various schools.

Responsibilities

We are currently seeking three mother tongue teachers in the following languages:

  • Tagalog (Filipino)
  • Punjabi
  • Bengali

The role of a mother tongue teacher involves planning, conducting, and following up on your teaching based on current regulatory documents. You document students' development and results in written assessments and grades. You collaborate with teachers in work teams at CFL and at the schools where you teach. The position may also include study guidance for students in the relevant mother tongue.

The mother tongue teachers have a mandatory joint meeting time every Tuesday, where we alternate between competence development, workplace meetings, and work team meetings. During competence development and work team meetings, we learn from each other and solve challenges together. You are expected to continuously develop your own teaching, as well as contribute to the development of the rest of the operations by participating in various development processes.

Qualifications

We are looking for you who have a Swedish teaching license in the subject of mother tongue Tagalog, Punjabi, or Bengali, or other education deemed equivalent. You have documented teaching experience and are good at building good relationships in the contexts you work in. You have good administrative skills and strong language proficiency in both speech and writing in the mother tongue as well as Swedish. You have documented good knowledge of Swedish. You have knowledge of the Swedish school system, curriculum, and grading system. In collaboration with other staff, you create an environment where students can develop a desire to learn and are given the opportunity to succeed. Personal suitability is highly valued. A driver's license and car are considered an asset as the work is often located at different schools in the City of Borås.
