"We learn for life, together we succeed!"

Mariekällskolan is a municipal school for grades 4-9 located centrally in Södertälje Municipality. The school has approximately 500 students and just over 70 employees. We are a multicultural school and are constantly working to develop and improve our methods to meet the needs of all students.

Learning and safety are at the forefront, and we regularly conduct follow-ups on results and attendance for all students, supported by an active student health team. The school's values are based on a culture of responsibility where it is important that everyone participates in defining needs and prioritizing together based on available resources.

Your Responsibilities

You will be part of the teaching team for grades 7–9 at Mariekällskolan. Your main responsibility is to plan and teach Swedish and Swedish as a Second Language in grades 7–9. In these subjects, we apply a two-teacher model, meaning you will plan, conduct, and follow up on teaching together with a colleague.

The position also includes a shared mentorship role together with a colleague.

At the school, we actively work to make teaching accessible through a common lesson structure and language- and knowledge-developing approaches (SOKA). Together with the school leadership, dedicated educators in the teaching team, the student health team (EHT), and the safety team, we collaborate to promote the safety and knowledge development of all students.

As a teacher with us, you are expected to be development-oriented, reflect on, and continuously test and re-evaluate your teaching. You will actively participate in our collegial learning meetings (KLM), which are driven by the needs of the operation.
