We are looking for a mathematics teacher for our 2nd year group. The timetable also includes physical education and art.

If one of these subjects lies outside your area of competence, we can try to find an alternative solution.

We imagine that you

• are strong at structure and at creating clear frameworks
• have strong relationship skills and meet children with presence, clarity and acknowledgment
• can maintain an overview, even when everyday life requires adjustments
• see the value in teamwork and actively contribute to shared solutions
• work from an understanding that well-being, safety and good relationships are the foundation for learning
• collaborate constructively with colleagues, parents and other professionals
• are keen to join a school culture focused on well-being, learning and community

You consciously work to place children in privileged positions where their strengths are brought into play, and where teaching differentiation is a natural part of practice. At the same time you want to actively contribute to the ongoing development of our school and our shared pedagogical practice.

Do you know Tjørring School - a school with room for both academic focus and community?

With us you will become part of a staff group where relationships, job satisfaction and community are highly prioritized:

• A culture where we share knowledge, help each other and celebrate both big and small successes
• Opportunity to shape the community yourself and contribute with ideas and initiatives
• A strong teamwork in daily life, where planning, sparring and joint reflection are a natural part of the work
• An open and trusting atmosphere, where there is room for humor, diversity, professional discussions and curiosity about each other's practice
• A culture with surplus which means we are good at welcoming new colleagues
• A visible and supportive leadership

In short, you will become part of a school where professionalism and community go hand in hand.
