In addition to general education groups, our school provides special education and hospital education. We also offer Swedish immersion instruction for grades 1-6. Our staff perceives the work environment as positive, and collaboration at the grade level is active. Classroom teachers work in pairs or trios. The forms of collaboration among work pairs/trios are diverse, ranging from idea sharing and joint lesson planning to co-teaching. We offer a positive, enthusiastic work community and a supportive atmosphere for well-being. We expect good emotional and interaction skills and a caring approach to teaching. We value flexibility and a proactive attitude. We are looking for a versatile professional with a positive outlook, eagerness to learn, and active collaboration with the entire staff.
