On-call substitutes for the full-day classes in the Municipality of Middelfart

Are you passionate about working with students who need something special – and do you have a focus on safety, action, care and respect?

Then it could be you we are looking for for the Full-day Classes.

You will become part of a strong community where we work purposefully to create a safe, developing and meaningful school day for some of the students who need it the most.

About the Full-day Classes

The Full-day Classes are the Municipality of Middelfart’s offer to generally gifted children with socio-emotional difficulties. The students need a special educational learning environment where structure, relationships and clear adult support are essential for their well-being and learning. For the students in the early years, there is after-school care (SFO).

We work purposefully with

• strengthening students’ emotional regulation
• creating opportunities for participation for all
• supporting both academic development as well as personal and social well-being.

We are also in the process of developing a shared pedagogical foundation, where the Municipality of Middelfart’s view of children forms the basis for our practice. Active participation opportunities for all, mentalization, low arousal and co-teaching are key words in our work.

The Full-day Classes are located in Vejlby near Middelfart in scenic surroundings, which are actively involved in daily life and provide good opportunities for varied learning and well-being activities.

Each class has a fixed team, where

• all subjects are covered in collaboration
• we work with a shared structure and direction
• safety, action, care, respect and mentalization are keywords
• team collaboration is strengthened with binding agreements in team contracts
• an extended school–home collaboration is a valuable part of the work.

We offer

• a developmental workplace with high pedagogical ambitions
• a close and well-functioning collaboration between teachers and pedagogues
• a school in development with a focus on common direction and pedagogical quality
• opportunity for personal and professional development in a strong work community
• an engaged staff group with a focus on well-being and learning.

• are calm, patient and can maintain an overview.
• can create a structured and predictable framework.
