About Vallaskolan

Vallaskolan is centrally located in Sollefteå town. The school has a total of approximately 550 students distributed across two principal areas; grades 4-9 and adapted primary school. There are 24 classes in the primary school. The school leadership consists of a principal and two deputy principals, who also teach as part of their roles. There are approximately 45 teaching positions, including special needs teachers and teachers in special education groups. In addition, there are student wardens and resource persons. Within administration, student health services, library, IT, and maintenance, several other people are active. Six of the teachers are lead teachers. The lead teachers have an overarching role at the municipal level. In addition, at the request of the principal, they also lead development work at the school. The competence of the staff is highly valued by the school leadership, and there are good opportunities for development within the organization.

The operations are organized in grade-level teams. Close collaboration among teachers in the work team and with students facilitates promoting and preventive student health work, joint assessment, cross-curricular work, and other non-scheduled activities. As a teacher, you also belong to a subject group with several others who teach the same subject. In the subject group, students' work is assessed jointly, common planning is created, and student results and evaluations are analyzed together. The school also has an activity for newly arrived students integrated with a special educational environment.

Digitization and Student Health

Sollefteå Municipality is far ahead when it comes to digitization. All students have access to a Chromebook, and we use Google's educational services extensively in teaching. We also have access to digital learning materials in most subjects, all classrooms are equipped with projectors, and all teachers have their own Chromebook. Using technology as a tool to promote learning and goal achievement is a matter of course for the school.

The unit has a well-developed student health service with special needs teachers, two counselors, two school nurses, a study and career counselor, as well as access to a school psychologist on a consultative basis. The school has well-developed strategies for promoting and preventive student health work, in which student health is included in the work teams' SHM (Student Health Meetings). The structure of the combined competence contributes to strengthening students in their development both academically and socially.

There is always an IT technician on site, and the school library is well-staffed with personnel every day of the week.
