Vacant job

Do you want to put the student's learning and development at the core of everything you do? With us, you get to make a difference every day and create security for the students. Welcome to Ulleviskolan's Adapted Primary School!

Your Responsibilities

In the adapted school, you meet students with intellectual disabilities, where each individual has unique strengths, prerequisites, and needs for support. As a teacher with us, you work closely with the students in their development, learning, and daily life. You work with planning, implementation, and evaluation of teaching based on the curriculum, where values-based work is also a natural part.

You see the student's entire school day as an important whole and collaborate closely with colleagues, teaching assistants, and guardians. The role also includes close collaboration between the school and the leisure center to create the best possible conditions for each student's development and goal achievement.

The teaching is based on the student group you meet and is characterized by clear structure and a flexible approach. Using alternative and augmentative communication (AAC) such as picture support and sign support, as well as digital tools, is a natural part of your teaching. At the same time, you create a predictable environment where students can feel secure, develop, and be challenged at their own pace. Care-related tasks such as diaper changes, dressing, and assisting during meal times are also included in the adapted school role.

Common tasks include:

• Plan, adapt, and structure teaching to create the best possible conditions for each student's learning
• Lead and distribute work in the classroom, as well as supervise and guide teaching assistants in their daily work
• Ensure that teaching maintains a clear direction towards set goals and that everyone in the team works towards the same goals
• Be responsible for teaching in subject areas/subjects and design content that stimulates student development
• Continuously adapt the teaching situation, for example by organizing groups or activities to meet students' different needs
• Clarify instructions and expectations for students and support them in their knowledge development and independence

By building secure relationships, you contribute to students developing their abilities and making progress in both learning and daily life.

The position is a fixed-term contract (vicarious) from 2026-08-10 to 2027-06-18.

Your Workplace

Ulleviskolan Adapted Primary School is located in the Skäggetorp district of Linköping and shares premises with Ulleviskolan's Primary School. The school was established in March 2021 and currently has approximately 60 enrolled students, from Flex to Year 6, with about 6-8 students per class. The premises are fresh and adapted to our operations; for example, we have adapted home economics classrooms. Nature is close by, and we also have an e-bike that enables excursions with students in the local area.

The school is characterized by a generous and welcoming climate where collaboration is central. You will thrive here if you appreciate the dynamic nature of the work and value high professional cohesion. We who work here have the students in focus. We strive to give all students the opportunity to develop based on their prerequisites. Our goal is for students to be involved and feel that they can influence their learning and learning environment, thereby strengthening themselves as individuals. Since we work closely together, we have an open and positive climate where everyone helps out. Together with the primary school, we create our values and traditions.

There is a craft teacher at Ulleviskolan who is responsible for teaching in the primary school. The role involves close collaboration where you share the craft room and workspace. You continuously collaborate with the school's teachers and teaching assistants to create a secure and developmental learning environment for the students.

You Who Apply

We are primarily looking for you who have teacher certification with eligibility to teach craft in Years 1-6. Secondarily, we are looking for you with a completed teacher education for Years 1-6. Alternatively, you are at the end of your teacher education for Years 1-6. It is meritorious if you have special needs education or special teacher education with specialization in intellectual disabilities. You have previous experience of pedagogical work with students in need of special support; it is meritorious if you have worked in adapted schools. Furthermore, it is meritorious if you have experience with picture support.

In your role as a teacher, you have good knowledge of the school's mission and are well acquainted with the curriculum (Lgr22) and other governing documents. It is a requirement that you have good communicative skills in spoken and written Swedish. This is because, according to the curriculum for adapted schools, you must organize and carry out work so that the student receives support in their language and communication development.

As a teacher, you are a good role model and have clear pedagogical leadership in the classroom. You lead, engage, and motivate others in the team so that you together reach the goals for the students' development. You actively build relationships with students, colleagues, and others you meet by seeing each individual's needs and abilities. Furthermore, you have the ability to adapt your teaching to the students and you act calmly and securely in challenging situations. You have the ability to focus on the right things even if prerequisites change. You collaborate well with colleagues, guardians, and other contacts in society that occur in your professional role.

If you have issued teacher certification and a list of eligibility, please attach these as files together with your application documents when applying for the position.
