Educator for the Phoenix Classes at Kirstinebjerg School, Dept. Inner Ring Road

Do you want to help create participation opportunities, development, and strong communities for children in an inclusive learning environment, where the interaction between the general education and the special pedagogical approach creates new opportunities for all students?

At Kirstinebjergskolen we are seeking a academically strong and relationship-building pedagogue for the Phoenix Classes at Department Indre Ringvej with a start date of 1 January 2027 or by agreement.

We are looking for a pedagogue who believes that all children do their best and who can translate an affirming and resource-focused approach into clear boundaries, structure, and meaningful communities in practice.

Who are we?

Kirstinebjergskolen is Fredericia’s largest public school with three base divisions from 0nd–6th grade and a common lower-secondary division from 7th–9th grade, where the divisions are located on different sites. Afd. Indre Ringvej is one of the base divisions in the Kirstinebjerg district with about 400 students.

The B-track at Indre Ringvej is also known as the Phoenix classes, which are general classes and at the same time a special pedagogical offering for students referred by Fredericia Municipality’s admissions committee. In the Phoenix classes, the class size is at most 16 students, of which 4 places are targeted at students referred to Phoenix by the admissions committee.

The referred students in Phoenix require a high degree of structure, predictability and increased adult support to participate on equal terms in general learning environments and social communities, and there is systematic scaffolding and social training in both the learning environment and the leisure part.

In the Phoenix classes, KRAP is our shared pedagogical foundation. We work from a resource-focused view of people and use KRAP tools systematically in our work with relationships, learning, well-being and documentation. We believe that all students want to succeed, and that development occurs through recognition and a holistic view of students’ resources, preconditions and development opportunities.

In 2030 Ny Skole is expected to be completed, which means that a completely new school will be built at Indre Ringvej, housing 0–9th grade in addition to two specialized tracks from the current Frederiksodde School.

Who are you?

We imagine that you

• are a trained pedagogue, academically well-founded and preferably with special education experience
• are strong in relationship work and curious about the practice you are part of – both in school and in leisure time
• are present, clear and structured in your pedagogical work
• work affirmingly, empathetically and are aware of your own strengths, apply them in practice, and bring them into play – both in team contexts and in interaction with the students.

• want to work systematically with KRAP tools, reflection and documentation
• see behavior as meaningful communication and an invitation to professional curiosity
• create predictable and comprehensible frameworks for students’ learning
• have good collaboration skills and interest in both close and broad collaboration across.

In addition, we hope you meet both students and colleagues with curiosity, energy, warmth and a twinkle in your eye.
