Vacant job

Description

Nordhemsskolan is a historic municipal school (grades F-9) located in the heart of Linnéstaden, at a convenient distance from the city center and Slottsskogen park. You can easily reach us as tram and bus lines converge at Järntorget, just north of the school.

Over 750 students attend the school, including approximately 75 in the lower and middle school sections. Nordhemsskolan places a strong emphasis on learning, focusing on good teaching in a secure environment. The school consists of a regular comprehensive school and an adapted comprehensive school, led by a team comprising the principal, three assistant principals, and approximately 100 staff members.

Nordhemsskolan works with PALS – a school-wide approach based on relationship-building, clarity, and structure, implemented on both a promoting/preventive and a direct intervention level. Nordhemsskolan is a music-profiled school, meaning all students have extra music lessons in addition to the national curriculum.
