• Can act as a link between the general and the special education area as well as between the different teams in the special department.
• Works proactively and has an eye for where the intervention is needed.
• Can act independently and make qualified decisions based on the day's situation and the department's overall needs.
• Is clear, structured and predictable in their pedagogical approach.
• Can function as an active and visible resource in the everyday life of the department.

We offer

• An exciting and meaningful position with great opportunity to make a difference for pupils with special needs.
• A professionally strong and engaged team of staff.
• A workplace focused on well-being, development and collaboration.
• Opportunity to actively contribute to the continued development of the school's special educational practices.
• Ongoing sparring and professional development, and a culture where we learn from each other.
• A workplace with room to grow, humor and an interest in the sense of community.

Employment terms

• Permanent position of 34 hours per week.
• Employment as soon as possible or by 1 December 2026.
• Attendance at departmental meetings, team meetings and other relevant meeting forums is expected.
