Are you a teacher with a passion for special education? Do you want to make a difference for children and young people with special needs? Then you may be our new colleague!

About us

Hamarhus School is an internal school for placed children and young people from Hald Ege and Hamarhus children and youth homes. We are part of Special Area for Children and Young People ( SBU ) under Region Midtjylland and are normed to 13 pupils.

The teaching is differentiated and planned according to each pupil's needs and resources. We work with small groups and close pupil contact to create a safe and structured everyday life.

We use pedagogical methods such as NAU, low arousal and autism education, and prioritize close collaboration with the residential units to ensure a holistic approach.
