About the job

At Øresundsskolen on Østerbro and Nørrebro we have big ambitions, strong communities and something special to offer.

Imagine a workplace where you every day make a difference for fantastic children. Where your colleagues are just as passionate about the task as you are. Where professional development, supervision and sparring are a natural part of the workday – and where management is close by and has time for you.

Does that sound like a place you would like to work? Then read on.

At Øresundsskolen (neighbor to Svanemøllen Station and with the primary school division at Hothers Place on Nørrebro) we want to create Denmark’s best special school. Not because we think we already are there, but because every single day we work purposefully to become even better.

We have 140 wonderful pupils, engaged parents and more than 150 talented staff who together create a school characterized by high professionalism, strong relationships and a uniquely special sense of community. And now, as a result of one of our wonderful colleagues going on maternity leave, a maternity substitute position.

We believe that good special education starts with staff who thrive, develop and have proper framework for their work.

Therefore we offer something we are quite proud of

  • Good framework and resources: A healthy economy, good staffing norms, newly renovated facilities, own vehicles and plenty of opportunities for good activities
  • A community you want to stay in: We prioritize staff wellbeing, social events, humor and good collegial relations. Many of our staff have been here for many years – and we are proud of that
  • Management that has your best interests at heart: We prioritize visible leadership, presence, sparring and a good working environment. With us you will experience that you are seen, heard and taken seriously
  • Systematic supervision: Regular internal supervision and external supervision by Bo Hejlskov for all teams
  • Close professional support: A full-time professional advisor who supports pedagogical practice and is available in everyday life.

Here we succeed together – not separately!

At Øresundsskolen we believe that the best results are created in community.

Pedagogues, teachers and teaching assistants work closely and as equals about the pupils’ well-being, learning and development. We share knowledge, help each other and are curious about how we can continually improve.

As a teaching assistant you will become an important part of a fixed class team and our KKFO. You will have the opportunity to create safe relationships, developing activities and meaningful communities for pupils with extensive psychological and physical disabilities.

It is a daily life that requires both professionalism, creativity, patience and a big heart. And it is a daily life that gives back incredibly much.

We do not expect you to know everything from the start. Instead we promise that you will not stand alone. We prioritize a thorough introduction, close sparring and ongoing professional development.

Salary and terms of employment

Salary and terms of employment according to the applicable collective agreement and within the framework of local pay formation. We obtain child and criminal record checks and take references in connection with recruitment.
