About Fridas Hage

At Fridas Hage, we believe that children develop best when they are met by adults who both care and set demands. Therefore, we work with clear structures, high expectations, and strong relationships. We are an F5 school (preschool class) with a leisure center and a special needs primary school located on the beautiful island of Tjörn. Around 200 students are greeted every morning by dedicated employees who work together to create safety, study peace, and a desire to learn.

We are a school where it should be easy to know what applies to students, guardians, and employees. We believe that structure creates safety and that safety creates prerequisites for learning. At the same time, Fridas Hage is more than just organization and routines. There is laughter in the hallways, adults who know their students, and colleagues who help each other when daily life requires it. Successes, big and small, are celebrated here, and we work together when challenges arise.

Our ambition is simple to formulate but requires a lot of work every day: Here we grow together.

Therefore, we are looking for more than just competence and education. We are looking for people who want to make a real difference together with students, colleagues, and guardians.
