Vacant job

Description

Gamlestadsskolan is a primary and lower secondary school (grades F-9) located in the historic Gamlestaden district, serving children and students primarily from the local area and Eastern Gothenburg. The Gamlestaden district is currently undergoing a period of significant expansion with several planned projects aimed at making it one of Gothenburg's most important hubs for transport, housing, and services in the future.

Approximately 580 students attend Gamlestadsskolan in grades F-9, and we also have four after-school centers where our youngest students receive care. The school is organized into smaller units within the larger school structure to foster closeness and ensure every student feels seen. We actively work to create a "We-feeling" where teachers and students share responsibility for the school environment and well-being.

We are now looking for a special needs teacher in mathematics, Swedish, and Swedish as a Second Language (SVA) with qualifications to teach grades 4–6!

Responsibilities

In the role of a special needs teacher, you will collaborate with primary school teachers to provide students with the guidance and stimulation they need for their learning and personal development. The goal is for students to develop as far as possible according to educational objectives, based on their individual prerequisites. You will also provide special pedagogical support interventions and teach both individually and in groups. Together with the school's special educator and special needs teachers, you will drive the development of pedagogical work, focusing specifically on meeting the needs of all children and students.

Our vision is "Together we learn and develop to help improve the world." This requires us all to truly work together, be willing to learn new things, and constantly strive for improvements, big or small. This is a vision for everyone – both staff and students. Do you want to join us on this journey?
