Would you like to be part of a school where we lift each other up together, and where professionalism, well-being, and strong relationships go hand in hand?

Are you passionate about creating motivating and inquiry-based teaching for students in 1st–5th grade – and would you like to be part of a professional learning community where we develop our practice together?

Then perhaps it is you we are looking for.

Om stillingen We are seeking a teacher who can teach

• Mathematics and science/technology

And preferably

• Music
• Craft and design
• Physical education

The lessons are consolidated in two classes for year 1 and year 3, where you are a co-class teacher.

We work in a rotation from 1st to 5th grade. The timetable is largely parallelled across the year group, and the year-group subject teams prepare annual plans as well as prepare, deliver and evaluate the teaching in collaboration.

We believe that all children do the right thing if they can. Our ambition is that all children should succeed in the community. Therefore, students' experience of the school day and the teaching is a central focus of our work.

In our professional learning communities we work systematically to develop our teaching and organization—with an eye to what we as professionals can adjust to strengthen both well-being and learning.

• You have a major/minor in the above subjects (or solid experience teaching them)
• You have strong relational skills and a focus on students' well-being and learning
• You are skilled at classroom management

• You will be employed at a school characterized by a high degree of collaboration and openness among colleagues. We help each other and ensure that no one stands alone.
• We have a digital profile, which means that we continually work on how digital technology can support curiosity, learning, motivation and collaboration, as well as provide variety in teaching.
• There is a really good atmosphere and good spirits here.
• We have good visual and physical facilities.

The school's focus areas for next year align with the municipal focus on opportunities for participation for all, high academic standards and progression, and well-being. We are committed to ensuring that all children succeed in the communities they participate in.
