About the Position

1 position(s).

Responsibilities

Preschool Saga is located in the south of Växjö, close to both forest and urban environments. The preschool is organized into four departments where children are grouped by similar ages. We are a preschool inspired by the Reggio Emilia philosophy. For us, this means working with a project-based approach where children's hypotheses and problem-solving form the basis for the educators' design of teaching. Here, the pedagogical environment is designed to inspire interaction, creativity, and exploration.

Our Vision:

The preschool should be a place where joy and learning go hand in hand, where every child feels seen and acknowledged, where teaching is adapted to each individual child, and where children are active co-researchers in their own learning process. Children are big little people.

As a newly graduated preschool teacher, you will have access to an experienced mentor during your mentorship year.

Qualifications

You are a trained preschool teacher, or nearing the end of your education, eager for an exciting, creative, and innovative assignment. You have good teamwork skills, are flexible, and have a positive outlook, ready to meet the child with respect for the knowledge the child possesses. We place great importance on personal suitability for the position.

We see that you:

• Want to work in a team where you consider the whole preschool and the best interests of all children
• Are curious to be part of a process where we together create a preschool with high pedagogical quality that values our democratic values
• Have a strong commitment and good teamwork skills, creating good relationships with children, colleagues, and guardians
• Are familiar with working with pedagogical documentation and are well-versed in the preschool's guiding documents
• Have good leadership qualities

Experience with a Reggio Emilia-inspired approach is an advantage.
