Vacant job

Do you have ideas for the future and are you driven by challenges? In Haninge, you will develop together with secure colleagues who want to make a difference today. Currently, one of the most ambitious change processes in our municipality's history is underway. We are building a new city, approximately 20 minutes from the South. Join us on our journey.

Welcome to develop with us!

Vega School and Activity House are located in the Vega area, Haninge Municipality, just south of Stockholm.

In addition to operations for compulsory school grades F-9 and adapted compulsory school, we also have a full-sized sports hall, a public library, a youth center, a music school, an orchestra hall, and a café. The school's premises are spacious, modernly furnished, and contain everything required for high-quality teaching.

We have approximately 750 students in grades F-9, after-school care, and adapted compulsory school. During the day, our premises are used by the school. After school hours, the music school, associations, private individuals, and other actors operate in parts of the premises. Staff from the Culture and Leisure Administration and the Education Administration collaborate closely in these premises to create opportunities for broader learning.

Welcome to a school where we together learn, discover, and meet!

Your assignment

We are looking for you who have experience and are qualified to teach Home Economics and Consumer Studies in grades 6–9. The position also includes teaching Spanish in lower secondary school, so we are looking for you who have experience and are qualified to teach Spanish. You have a strong commitment to the students' learning, safety, future, and to teaching characterized by high quality. All teaching takes place in state-of-the-art, fully equipped classrooms.

We are looking for a clear leader who is secure in their role as a teacher. You are a creative, flexible, and engaged teacher who wants to develop teaching and works to ensure that every student reaches as far as possible in their knowledge and personal development. You are keen on creating a safe learning environment based on mutual respect, and you understand the importance of teaching being creative and stimulating, while resting on research and proven methods. You are unpretentious, curious, and share your knowledge with others.

Your assignment includes, among other things, planning, implementing, evaluating, and being responsible for the pedagogical work based on the school's steering documents and the student's needs and interests; both individually and together with your colleagues. Collaboration with colleagues is a key factor and a natural element where collegial learning is fundamental.

You are part of one of the school's work teams in lower secondary school, which are divided by grade level. Your assignment also includes shared mentorship for one of the classes in lower secondary school. Together with other colleagues, you are part of the collegial work on the development of the pedagogical operations at the school. At Vega School, we value the ability to create good relationships with students, guardians, and colleagues.

Since the Culture and Leisure Administration has parts of its operations in the same building, we consider it natural that you have an interest and willingness to collaborate with other actors and view the student's goal achievement from a holistic perspective, where all parts contribute.

What we are looking for in you

You are a certified teacher with qualifications to teach Home Economics and Consumer Studies as well as Spanish. It is an advantage if you have experience with language-developing approaches and are also qualified in Swedish or English.

At our school, every student should have the opportunity to reach their potential. Therefore, we want you to:

• Be clear, structured, and organized.
• Have good didactic and pedagogical skills to lead and organize for a good learning environment.
• Have high expectations of the students and their ability to develop.
• Be solution-focused and contribute to a good atmosphere and work environment.
• Be development-oriented and want to grow in your profession.
• Stimulate students' curiosity and desire to learn.
• Be sensitive to each student's conditions and needs and adapt accordingly.
• Enjoy cross-curricular collaboration.
• Have high digital maturity, as our classrooms are equipped with the latest technology. You see Unikum, Teams, and Google Classroom as natural tools in your work and communication.

The school is relatively new, which means you will have the opportunity to contribute to the continued development of the operations. You thrive in a growing organization and see it as a positive challenge.

In the recruitment process, great importance will be placed on personal suitability and good references.
