Vacant job

We are looking for an engaged employee for the adapted primary school!

Christinaskolan Adapted Primary School is a school where we work with warmth, competence, and structure to ensure every student has the opportunity to develop based on their prerequisites. At our school, relationships, security, and clarity are at the center. Our students have intellectual disabilities and, in some cases, additional functional variations. We have students from preschool class to grade 9 who study subjects and subject areas, offering education in a small and secure environment.

We are looking for a special needs teacher specializing in intellectual disabilities for teaching students studying subject areas, or alternatively, a preschool teacher for teaching in the preschool class.

Responsibilities

As a special needs teacher, you work in a team together with resource pedagogues, student assistants, and other teachers. You adapt the teaching using clarifying pedagogy and strive to create a secure environment that attracts and challenges students to activity, learning, and responsibility.

You are also a mentor for a small group of students, responsible for documentation and contact with guardians.

Qualifications

• You are trained as a teacher, preschool teacher, or youth worker and have a teaching license with eligibility as a special needs teacher/special educator specializing in intellectual disabilities.
• We may also be interested in you if you are trained as a teacher, preschool teacher, or youth worker.
• We want you to have knowledge of alternative and augmentative communication (AAC), clarifying pedagogy, and low-arousal approaches.
• If you have experience working in an adapted primary school or with students in need of special support, we view this as an advantage.
• As a person, you must be secure, structured, and have good collaboration skills.
• For this role, you need to be solution-focused and have a positive attitude in your work.
