Job Description

You are a secure and positive role model for our students and support them in their learning, communication, and social development. The students follow an adapted curriculum that resembles and is integrated with the comprehensive school curriculum, and teaching is carried out in close collaboration with comprehensive school principals and staff. Various pedagogical tools are used in the work, such as visual supports, sign language, and sensory or creative training, to meet the students' individual needs.

As support for an individual student, you are actively present, guide in both teaching and care situations, and contribute to a secure, structured, and predictable environment. The work is varied and involves significant responsibility as well as the ability to work independently.

Examples of tasks:

• Support an individual student in teaching based on permanent staff's planning
• Use visual supports, signs, and other adapted methods to facilitate communication and learning
• Assist with practical tasks, care, and activities during the school day
• Participate in sensory, motor, and creative exercises together with the student
• Create security during breaks, transfers, and other transitions
• Contribute to after-school or afternoon activities adapted to the student's conditions
