The selected candidate must present a criminal record certificate for working with children and provide an acceptable health statement. Why choose Tuusula municipality as your employer? For us, the art of teaching is that you do not have to face the ever-changing daily life of a teacher alone or with too few resources. We give you space to engage with students, make pedagogical choices thoughtfully, and develop work collaboratively with colleagues. As part of the Tuusula teachers' community, you will have: Resources that are visible in daily work Our teaching resources are well-managed. This is evident, for example, in special education, where we always have a broad-based special education teacher per hundred students. Sharing lessons, material procurement, and flexible solutions support teaching implementation across different schools, considering local needs. Work as a multidisciplinary support teacher You will not work alone. In your daily work, you will be supported by principals, vice principals, special education teachers, school counselors, student welfare services, and close cooperation with youth work and other networks. Co-teaching is a conscious approach in Tuusula. It offers many opportunities for collaboration and sharing responsibilities. Opportunities to develop and learn Tuusula has a positive attitude towards learning and development. For us, development means deepening your teaching skills and improving teaching in the long term, not constant change or chasing career paths. Above all, we believe that everyday learning happens through doing together. Ideas are listened to and often quickly put into practice. A municipality of a suitable size with an agile and immediate atmosphere Tuusula is a municipality of a suitable size: agile and approachable, yet very close to the capital region. Schools are often central places within their local areas and villages, meaningful for students, families, and the entire community. School leadership and principals are present and involved in daily life without heavy bureaucracy or middlemen.
